Q? Are driver and passenger side muffler brackets the same?

I'm currently running "One Ball", and my driver's side bracket for the muffler rusted away. I still have the passenger side left over from the one ball surgery, and was wondering if it would work on the driver's side? I don't have the driver's side bracket anymore as a reference...

Hey Dan, they are not the same, but you might be able to make it work with some bending, but you risk breaking the part/s. If you need the replacement let me know at www.oemcooperparts.com

I just purchased the exact same part at the dealer a few days ago.

The top portion is $63 Canadian (obviously cheaper in the USA)
and the bottom portion is $19 Canadian.

Screws I think were 1 dollar each.

We got some used ones if you can't make your other one work.
