Would appreciate some photo's of rear silencer mount, if anyone has this sports exhaust factory fit option. Upper photo shows the standard fit mount to support rear of r/h oval silencer. Note how the U bolt on bobbin supported plate doesn't allow it to clamp the joint to rear pipe in correct position necessitating an extra U clamp just forward doh

The problem is the AR round section silencer is approx 4 inches shorter so there is no way the existing rear mount will fit without modification, although front mount looks to fit fine. The exit of AR silencer is shown lying below in the approx lengthwise position it will fit, indicating the exit bend starts well forward of existing clamp position. Seemingly simplest answer would be to move the chassis mounted bobbin supporting "L" shaped bracket, as shown in lower photo, just forward of the chassis brace. That would involve removal of seat, seat belt mount and trim though, even then assuming access, not to mention drilling extra hole's in chassis. Other option would be to make up roughly triangular plate (have some 3mm stainless) and extend bobbin mounts to sit at an angle, clamping exit pipe half way around its 90° bend to minimise extension needed and hence twisting force on narrow "L" bracket [Linked Image]

Hope the usual Morgan assymetry is not too great for the other side. Any other suggestions appreciated.
