The inventive device is a connector for mounting a vertical exhaust pipe to a truck cab. In one embodiment, the connector includes a bracket, a resilient member, a rigid bushing, a rod, and a clamp. The bracket is mountable to the cab in the proximity of the exhaust pipe. The resilient member is coupled to the bracket, and the bushing is coupled to the resilient member. The rod has an upper end and a lower end, and it is positioned through the bushing. The clamp has a brace attached to an end of the rod and a clasp that is attachable to the exhaust pipe. The rod is moveable axially through the bushing to correspond to vertical displacement between the cab and the exhaust pipe, but the rod is substantially prevented from moving laterally with respect to the cab to substantially prevent lateral displacement between the exhaust pipe and the cab. The resilient member is made from a material that dampens vibrations from the exhaust pipe to reduce noise in the cab.
