[TR] Stag exhaust mounting

[Frank Magnusson]

Thanks Sujit.  I think you're right.  James Paddocks website shows it as a bracket for the J type OD.  Rimmers site shows it as common to all except the type 65 auto box, which sounds like it is a misprint.  Thanks for the help.

On the gearbox, the upper mounting bracket thst attaches to the tailshaft has a bracket coming off it that drops down with two holes in it.  My old downpipes were attached directly to this bracket.

Its triangular so to speak and has 3 mounting holes.  2 would attach to the downpipes presumably, but where does that bracket attach to with the 3rd hole?  The catalog shows a bolt with no nut implying it screws into a nutplate.  Does this bracket attach to one of the holes on the gearbox upper mounting bracket?
