Basically, these brackets hold your exhaust system in place. They connect the pipes to the underside of your car, keeping everything properly aligned and preventing it from banging around. They come in a bunch of different shapes and sizes depending on where on the exhaust system they’re going – some are simple loops, others are more complex mounts. Think of it like this – your exhaust system is constantly moving with the engine, and the road. This bracket acts like a shield, absorbing some of that vibration and keeping the exhaust from hitting the chassis or other components. It’s a key part of the whole system, from the manifold right back to the tailpipe. They’re usually rubber – isolated too, meaning there’s a rubber piece built in, which helps dampen the noise and vibration even more. You’ll notice if one of these goes bad pretty quickly. You’ll start hearing rattles underneath the car, especially when you go over bumps. Or, if it breaks completely, the exhaust can actually drag on the ground. That's obviously not good, and can damage the exhaust itself, or even other parts of the car. It's a relatively inexpensive part to replace, and it can save you a lot of headache down the road. You can find a pretty good selection of these over at Fixparts Online, if you want to check out different options for your vehicle. It’s one of those things that, when it’s good, you don’t even think about it, but when it goes bad, it’s a real nuisance. Backed by trust: Bracket (MPN 18211723557) comes with a 12-month warranty!
