Exhaust Hangers

Hey guys!

I'm putting my dual exhaust on this weekend, but I need some help -- I've gotta figure out what to use to make hangers, and where I need to put them...

It'll be a 2.25" dual exhaust setup with an X-pipe, and Aerochambers, all running up to the factory manifolds for now.

I'd prefer to build something if possible so I don't have to go and buy a bunch of hangers... The mufflers are gonna be costly enough as it is, lol

Here are a couple pictures of what I've got right now, I decided I needed to move the axle pipe to get as much clearance between it and the blazer tank as I could, but is that too close to my shock? You can also see that the hangers that came with the pipes are too flimsy, thats after going out for a single trip. So I used some wire to help hold the pipe solid, but I do wanna make a better hanger...

Second picture is just a picture showing off the lovely wheel well of my truck with the pipe coming out a bit crooked :p The filler neck is for the Blazer tank, I gotta figure out what I am gonna do with it...

You should be able to buy hangers from a local auto parts store.
The quality is good and price is ok.
Galvanized with rubber isolators and different holes punched for adjusting.

They look similar to these:
