ABSTRACT:
A hanger clamp assembly is provided for supporting a muffler body directly from the undercarriage of a vehicle. A band clamp is adapted to encircle the muffler body and a mounting arm of a hanger bracket is disposed between a support plate on the band clamp and the muffler. The band clamp has a force applying mechanism to tighten the sleeve of the band clamp around the muffler and press the support plate against the surface of the muffler. The support plate is substantially longer in the circumferential direction than the mounting arm of the support bracket and thereby provides an extended moment arm to resist rotative motion of the muffler about its longitudinal axis.
