ABSTRACT:
An automotive vehicle tailpipe hanger for securing a tailpipe clamp to a support means formed on the vehicle is made of an L-shaped member having a horizontal leg and a vertical leg which is normally arranged between and overlapped by and secured to the opposite end portions of a double-bent, elongated, rubber-like strip. The inverted U-shaped bight of the bent strip normally suspends the hanger from the vehicle support. The strip end portions and the vertical leg are each provided with a number of equally spaced apart openings along its length. A releasable, bolt-like mechanical fastener extends through pre-selected openings in the vertical leg and the overlapping end portions for varying the amount of relative overlap and thereby, adjusting the over-all height of the hanger. A C-shaped bracket is pivotally secured to the horizontal leg for holding a ring-like tailpipe clamp which encircles and supports a tailpipe.
