    Do they sell special clamps to hold that pipe, because Volvo has its factory clamp made to hold the muffler

    I guess the only downside to a straight pipe like mine from the muffler shop is the fact the pipe isn’t chrome. For you it’ll be fine because you have rear cab extenders. On my shaker I took them off cuz I was going for a classic look and the pipe stuck out like a sore thumb

    I used factory cab mounts and elbow. I just bought new fasteners/clamps while I was doing it. But didn’t have to

    Like you can see on the picture, once I remove that muffler and replace it with a pipe what can I use to hold that pipe in place

    Because they always get rusted and start leaking exhaust from the bottom.
