ABSTRACT:
An exhaust system for a front mounted, transverse engine includes an exhaust pipe and tailpipe assembly having an interposed low profile gas converter therebetween supported by a pair of pedestal type suspension assemblies and a converter support bar directed transversely below the converter and wherein each of the suspension assemblies includes a resiliently yieldable insulator of elastomeric material vertically compressed by the supported exhaust system and including a cylindrical hollow end slidably fitted over a converter bar end to vertically support the bar on a vehicle frame and further including a thin web segment that readily bends on either side of the at rest vertical axis of the insulator to accommodate fore and aft engine induced roll movements while serving to isolate inherent exhaust noise transmission from the exhaust system to the vehicle frame or body.
