Silencer mount

I finally got round to making a mount for the silencer today. This is made up of three parts, a length of 5mm bar bolted to the underside of the car, a Renault bobbin and a bracket to attach to the silencer.

The bar is at an angle so I could bolt through the seat web rather than just the aluminium floor, I thought this would give it a bit more strength. The near side of the bar is bolted through the lower chassis rail from the inside.

The top bracket is 3mm plate welded at right angles, the overall shape tidied up with a hacksaw then file. These parts have been taken off the car for now for painting.
