Reproductions of discontinued exhaust hangers

Hello, are you still reproducing parts? The last picture you have there is the one I can't find anywhere (Jeep YJ part 52002743), which holds the catalytic converter in place. I have pics of my old part if that helps. Thanks-Mark

What is left of your old part? If the lower section is still good, I can weld on a new upper section. I can make a new one that should fit, but repairing the old one is easier. You're not too far from me in NJ, so I'm sure we can get together and get you a part that will work.

That would be great. Welding on a new top would do it. The base is still good, it's the top part that they welded to the exhaust pipe which is no longer usable.

I can run the part up to you depending your availability, looks like I'm about 30 min. away

Any luck on reproducing part number 52003925? Transmission mount bracket.

I could easily reproduce the metal part, if I had one to get measurements from. The hard part is sourcing the rubber piece. They do not appear to be a replaceable part, so they aren't available aftermarket.

There are a few of these parts for sale on ebay, although they are not listed by part number. I think these are the correct part. https://www.ebay.com/itm/4040654742...d=link&campid=5337789113&toolid=20001&mkevt=1

I have finalized the design on the reproduction of the Catalytic converter hanger part # 52002743. I have a couple of them made and will probably sell them for $45 + shipping. Message me or email me at ds690@comcast.net, if you are interested. View attachment 121690View attachment 121691

Once again, nice work! If I had the older cat that used this bracket, I'd be all over one. I wish the transmission brackets were easier to produce and that a good rubber isolator bushing was available to use with the U slot in it for the cat support.

I don't own a Jeep, but a friend of mine owns a YJ and asked me if I could reproduce the tailpipe hanger clamp(Mopar part # 52003427) for him. I had a hard time even finding a picture of one, but I was able to make one using the Mopar parts drawing and the other half of the hanger that he was able to purchase (Mopar part # 52003426). I made a few extras to sell on eBay to anyone else who needed the part and it turned out that a lot of people need them.

A few months later, I got a request for the other half of the hanger and found that they were no longer available for sale anywhere. I was able to produce a similar part, but with relief cuts for bending, since I don't have a huge press in my garage. Pictured below is the full assembly that I produce. View attachment 118793

I have a couple of parts in the prototype/testing phase that I'm waiting for some feedback on. Those being the muffler hanger and the hanger that attched to the catalytic converter. Both have been modified to fit the capabilities that I have in my small garage workshop. View attachment 118794View attachment 118795

I am open to trying to reproduce other parts as well, as long as they are not too large or complex for me to be able to do in my shop. Please send me a private message with any requests.

I will probably be listing the tailpipe hanger parts in the for sale section and any other parts after they are tested.
