donthaveaclue;
'Associated' sells tuned pipe retainers made out of piano wire, for pipes that have no other way of supporting them on the chassis.
They come in 2 different styles and you should be able to make one of them fit.

Those clips will hold really well and hardly breaks loose. Ties will not be able to hold as tight as the clips.

I think he's talking about the wire retainer that connects muffler to the chassis. If so, I'd cut out a piece from a hanger and bend it to fit the muffler and chassis. Hope this helps.
