Similar concept. Simple but effective. Although for additional security (minimal as it is) I use hex-head bolt (take off with the lug nut wrench) instead of a wing nut on the front mounting point. |
I liked your design. I tried to google the same hardware, but didn't find anything the price range you quoted. However it was your post that inspirated me to look for existing equipment and use them in ways other than their intended use. I first looked at UBolts, then MufflerClaims, and finally pipe claims. Finding this pipe claims was shear luck, but I instantly recognized that they would fit the bill. I like your suggestions of upgrading the hardware. I am going to make another trip to the hardware store tomorrow.
