Sprint silencer front mount bracket location?

PostPost by: RichardS » Sun Jul 07, 2013 2:24 pm

My old Pifco silencer has finally rusted through.

It was only attached by the rear strap. No signs of a front bracket. Have ordered new one from Sue Miller + a front bracket and mounts. Where does the bracket attach to the body? Can't see any obvious holes where the original was fitted but not sure I am looking in the right area.

Thanks

It's a home made bracket but similar to the original design.
