Larry,
Muffler hangars are made of some pretty significant stuff. You don’t want bubble gum-like rubber there.
Having said that, the Pantera hangar is the same as those used in a variety of 1960s and 1970d Alfa Romeos.
They are hilariously cheap.

Today I received two new "rubber" isolators, designed to allow some
flex in the muffler mounting, from Steve.
They may be made out of rubber, but I could seriously get close to the
same flexibility from a billet piece of aluminum the same size. These
things have essentially ..... no ..... twist or flex in any direction.
Have any of you purchased these isolators from other vendors and
received a better functioning product?
Thanks in advance,
Larry
