Two items of interest---


Hey all--


In my quest for the betterment of my Westy--I have produced two more
essential items, which are overbuilt as well as long lasting, and heavy
duty.


It's time for me to do a muffler change--and when I got the replacement
muffter clamps / bands--I found that the "Made in Mexico" units are
nothing to write home about---cheap, lame, and for sure not made for the
long haul.


They look as though they would rot out in a short period of time--


So I took it upon myself to produce a 1/8th inch steel strap--to the
exact dimentions of the orignal---mig welded the hanging pin on the top,
formed the right angle, and drilled on the bottom to mount it----and it
works better than I could ever possibly imagine---bullet proof.
These will be intact when the body rots off the Van---


I'll custom make these to order---


I don't want to mass produce them , and wind up warehousing 30 sets of
muffler hanger's--


I have also made heavy duty front accessory foglamp / running lamp
brackets--


They bolt to the bumper reinforcement--and also are made ot of 1/8th "
strap steel--
Now you can get these within the continental US for a resonable
price--and save a couple of bucks on the shipping as well--rather than
waiting for Sgt. Preston to ship them on the second Tuesday of next week
from north of the border --maybe.


These will be on a made to order basis as well--


Drop me a line---for more details--
Thanks,
           ______________
