  I made my own.  Bent some steel, used some barn mat rubber..(horse
mat)....Then I got a real one, but so far, my own creation is working
fine...I could send some pics if anyone wants to copy it.  The only
'problem' I have had is that I don't have the right kind of "T-bolt" band
clamp to capture the muffler so I have been using two hose clamps.   Those
broke for a while until I figured out how to shim them and how much torque
to put on....But the proper clamp would be trouble free from the start, and
I have found sources for those now.
