CA 2155915

An exhaust muffler support apparatus is disclosed including a bracket assembly for clamping at least one end of the muffler to an exhaust pipe and a vehicle mount for mounting the bracket assembly on the vehicle, such as a truck cab. The vehicle mount includes a mounting plate and a pair of tab members formed integral therewith and extending laterally thereto for supporting a mounting shaft. A support arm having one end pivotally attached to the mounting shaft and its other end pivotally connected by a connector shaft to the muffler bracket assembly enables the bracket assembly to pivot about the two axes of such shafts. A shock absorber sleeve of elastomer surrounds the mounting shaft to reduce vibration and noise and to extend the life of the muffler support apparatus. Each bracket assembly includes two pairs of clamp members which are urged together by threaded bolts. One pair of clamp members is of greater length than the other and they are assembled in a nested relationship to provide four contacts between the muffler connector and the exhaust pipe and spaced longitudinally along the exhaust pipe for a stronger connection.
