Jonesboy Posted August 1, 2012 #1 Posted August 1, 2012 I'm helping a friend fix up a 96 4 piper and if some could post some pic's on how the muffler mounting brackets mount to the frame and mufflers I would sure appreciate it. The guy before welded drag pipes to the header pipes and the muffler mounts are due in tomorrow. Thanks for your time.....

joboo Posted August 1, 2012 #3 Posted August 1, 2012 Not sure how to tell you this, but the chrome covers on the pipes are welded to the brackets and the brackets mount to the frame. There are welded pieces on the frame where the muffler brackets attach, they look like pipe stock with slot cut in it, a bolt hole on one side and a captive nut welded to the in side, a rubber spacer in the middle. Pictures are virtually impossible with everything attached and the bike on the ground. When you say you have the brackets on the way, what are you expecting and how did you order them? The way they are made is pretty self explanatory. The covers and bracket being all one piece for each side, they slip on and attach with one bolt each (the bracket is welded to each cover and there is a bolt hole in the middle) to the bracket that is part of the frame. If you have removed the old pipes it should be pretty clear if there is still the frame mounting brackets on each side, they stick out pretty far toward the rear and are lower than anything else.
