Uncle Stashu Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 I just got a set of Toomeys for my Banshee and the stock hangers are in kinda rough shape. The one split apart years ago and I held it together by drilling a hole through the center of it and using a bolt and nut to keep everything together. Just noticed that the one on the other side is coming apart as well. Was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations of any particular kinds that hold up well? I've seen some that are just solid (no rubber to isolate the pipes from vibes). Wouldn't these lead to premature cracking of the pipes due to the vibration? Tanks in advance.... Quote
Barrymaxx Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 Get some newer used ones on ebay, or make ur own. Its not too hard Quote
Bansh-eman Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 i just spent the extra money and got some cascade hangers... Quote

FireHead Posted December 12, 2006 Report Posted December 12, 2006 i just spent the extra money and got some cascade hangers... I did the same thing. :beer: Quote
Uncle Stashu Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Posted December 13, 2006 Thanks for the replies. I realized that most of the ones I saw on ebay DO in fact have some kind of rubber grommet to isolate the pipes from vibes. Anyway being as it's close to Christmas and I bought the quad not too long ago (and just bought the pipes) I'm on a tight budget. I'll try to repair what I've got and fabricate the silencer mounts I need. Those cascade hangers sure look to be really nice, but pricey. You get what you pay for....... Quote
scooter Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 ive had good luck with cascade its pricey but the quality is great and there service is great too. Quote
ClimbAnyHill Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 go to the hardware store plumbing dept, I'm sure you can find some rubber bushing to make your rubber grommet, just place it in between the holes you drilled. that would be the cheap fix for ya! Quote

I'm laughing as I read this....I just recently worked on one of the toilets (or "turlet", if you're from northeast PA) and had purchased some rubber washers for mounting the tank. I planned on using these as part of the silencer mounts. :biggrin: :beer: Quote
