• Description:

  This is the genuine Ford front muffler bracket for 2011-2016 Ford F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty trucks equipped with the 6.2L gas V8. The bracket is a stamped-and-formed steel support that ties the front of the muffler and exhaust pipe to the vehicle underbody, working with the rubber hanger insulators to hold the exhaust in its correct position, control sag, and keep the system from contacting the frame, floor, or driveline. Owners looking for this part are typically dealing with a rattle or buzz from under the truck, a low-hanging or shifted exhaust, a broken or rusted-through hanger tab, or exhaust noise and contact after the original bracket has corroded and fatigued. Because Super Duty exhaust systems run hot and are exposed to road salt, these steel brackets crack and rust at the weld and bend points over time. This is the Ford catalog exhaust bracket under base 5A242, also referenced as the front muffler bracket or exhaust hanger. Install it with the correct rubber hanger insulators, verify clearance to surrounding components with the engine and exhaust cold, and confirm the exhaust hangs freely without preload so vibration is not transmitted into the cab.
