Can we get some photos of this -correct- way?  I'm not sure now if I
have all the proper hardware, as mine too have stretched (to the point
of breaking in one case).


>>>The Wilkinson site lists all the proper hardware.  At both the top 
and the bottom, you have Muffler Support Brackets:

These don't grip the rubber hangar directly.  Instead, there are a pair 
of steel retainers on each end (four in total) that go between the 
bracket and the rubber hangar:

And inside the rubber hanger are a pair of steel sleeves to keep it 
from crushing:

to determine what kind of gasket will work best, and perhaps use that
junction to better align where the hanger should go.
