There is a rubber hanger from the tail end of the 700r4 to the back of the cat. How do I replace this because mine's ripped?

 

I THINK I know what ya speak of.
I was just under car today.
I believe it's all metal.
YET
IF NOT
YA may have to seek wrecking yard replacement.
Get this part from a 4th gen w/V-6 of 60* cause it shouldbe same, & newer
Ya damage this due to the CC installation?

 

no, it's got a cloth type material riveted to the tranny hanger, and hangs down where the i-pipe & cat meet. might be able to find universal hanger for it.

I used to look at this thing often as I drilled out those tranny bolts & "attempted" toput in the I-pipe on my car.

 

If I hit the yards, doesn't that mean I gotta bring a drill w/ me too? Dang I wish there was a universal replacement.

Actually this is just the result of old wear n tear. The CC replacement just pushed the rubber/cloth to its limits and tore the sucker. Now when I accelerate from a dead stop or brake hard, the car goes CLUNK, and its not tranny related because I have the polyurethane tranny mount, but I know that exhaust hanger is ripped.

 

Same thing here (hanger ripped due to aftermarket high-flow cat stretching the hanger to extremes). Hanger should unbolt from the cat; there's a bracket that bolts to the cat-to-i-pipe flange. Getting the hanger off the trans requires un-doing some of the torque arm bracket bolts, if I recall correctly.

 

A universal item to fit MAY BE
muffler shop muffler straps "altered"
for your purpose.

 

Went to the exhaust shop today to weld up my leak @ the cat. $10. Tranny to exhaust hanger, dealer item.

I went to Rydell GM in Van Nuys and I ask them for the hanger. Special order from Reno, NV... 4 days wait... $24... guy gives me the P/N
10026086 is the hanger, bolts to tranny and cat.
GMpartsdirect has it for $12.xx or so + shipping.
Running total $20.54...

Waiting on the part now...
