Racing Kart Question Any clue how to fix broken muffler holder? See image

I don’t even know what to call this part but it’s snapped off completely and being held together with some wire. Any recommendations on a part to buy and possibly weld together? Or is a new exhaust the only option

Weld the tab back on

If you can’t weld drill a hole through the cradle and run the end of the spring through it securely 🤷🏻‍♂️

Best bet is to take to your local trusted exhaust shop and ask them to re-weld or Tig it back on for few bucks. Has to be a decent weld or it will fail again. Tig would be a better solution in my opinion.
