Anyone who knows if the stock exhaust hangers/ brackets are interchangeable from RH to LH?
Looking on the pict below you get the impression that most of them are but the tailpipe bracket seems to be different.

The one on the link below is only for RH according to the seller.

Any input appreciated

The tailpipe hangers are not interchangeable. the brackets that clamp to the pipe are the same.

Thanks WDR, just as I thought with the tailpipe bracket being different and the rest will work on both sides.

However when looking at the bracket below you get the impression that it could fit both sides with a slight tweaking/modification….

I can confirm that the bracket can be modified to work on the right side. If I remember correctly there is a metal tooth that sticks through a hole in the frame to keep the hanger from pivoting around the mounting bolt. I think this tooth is the only difference between the two.

You can cut off the tooth and add another bolt to keep the bracket from pivoting.

This is all for a '73. I hope it's the same for your year.

Thanks for the confirmation John, you describe it just as I had pictured it in my head…just wasn’t sure if I had missed something, but know I know :xyxthumbs:
