Abstract
A support assembly for an exhaust system of a motor vehicle is disclosed. This assembly comprises a U-shaped channel bracket adapted to be mounted on the body of the vehicle. A strip bracket is adapted to be fixed at one end portion to the exhaust system and inserted at its other end portion parallel to and between the opposite side walls of the U-shaped channel bracket so as to form two spaces between the other end portion of the strip bracket and each of the side walls of the U-shaped channel bracket. Two vibration absorbing members are inserted into the spaces, respectively, and firmly joined to the side walls of the U-shaped channel bracket and the other end portion of the strip bracket to prevent the transmission of vibration of the exhaust system to the vehicle body. There is a spacing between the other end portion of the strip bracket and the bottom of the U-shaped channel bracket thereby preventing the transmission of vertical vibrations from the strip bracket to the U-shaped channel bracket.
