On the early S model (pictured), the inboard hanger is welded to the chassis and the outboards are stud mounted, the studs are fixed. The rubber hanger and outboard bracket can be purchased. I don’t know what the Cooper mounts look like.

What would you like to accomplish?

On my vehicle, there is no fastening provision for the later inner mount 18207521427.

What exhaust are you running?

It would probably be easier to modify the exhaust's hanger than attempt a retrofit of the stock mount. On the Miltek, it's a heat and bend situation.
