hi all,my next job on my 61 mk1 is to fit the new exhaust.the old ones been off so long i cant remember how many mounting brackets it should have! theres the two on the rear subframe,one thats square and the others a bobbin type. and im guessing theres one nearer the front? any help appreciated...

You guessed correctly.
The other bracket connects to a bracket which fits on the r/hand output shaft cover on the diff.
The bracket utilises 2 of the output cover setscrews.

ive scanned through the diagrams in the haynes manual and found two different ways the exhaust is fixed up front (pages 20 & 25) mine is bolted straight into the casing as page 20 so no extra bracket required to bolt to the casing. i just need to cut the bracket that came with the exhaust down to suit i guess.
