I just bought a used 2007 polaris hawkeye and the previous owner installed an aftermarket muffler, which doesn't fit right so it leaks and is way too loud..so I ordered a stock muffler from polaris...the last owner had to jimmy a few things to mount the aftermarket muffler and has removed the original mount for the stock muffler...I am having problems finding an original stock mount...could anyone either give me the part # for the mount or post a pic or diagram of a stock muffler mounted,so I could at least have a mount fabricated?Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Welcome!Look here under your model and you should find what you need.Browse OPT

 

Thanks for the reply!!I am guessing there are no mounting brackets..I have checked this site and it only shows the nuts and bolts...guess the muffler attaches directly to the frame..I have tried to mount it this way,but the muffler ends up short of reaching the header pipe enough to create a tight seal, with the seal ring in there...maybe the previous owner bent the header pipe to fit the aftermarket muffler...I have also called some polaris dealers and they seem a bit baffled...oh well, guess I will have to fabricate something in order to make it work!again thank you!

 

Yes the muffler mounts are part of the frame and the bolts go through these to the slots on the muffler. Sounds like a little welding may be needed. OPT

 

thanks for your help OPT!!Gonna have to fabricate something and by the sounds get some welding involved.
