exhaust rubber hangers

Hi all..

Can anybody recommend a good heavy duty alternative to the standard
exhaust rubbers for the back box on a diesel tourer please?

I see that there are a few different "colours" listed on various sites, but I have
no idea which ones are good or bad as always used standard ones..

Use whatever you can get and reinforce them with criss-crossed heavy duty cable ties to cut out the over bounce which kills them.

Don't over tighten them or you will lose the cushioning.

I would stay with the originals ; they are the only ones which eliminate the bounce which develops into a knock

I have tried several alternatives but they have all been too soft .
Originals for the diesel are item 12 here https://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID001957
