[FC] muffler hanger replacement on Lakewood

Assuming that a Lakewood is like a car hanger (I don't know), there are two 
bolts holding the metal (more or less triangular piece) to the head - one at 
the top corner and one at the bottom corner.  If I recall correctly, the 
triangular piece slides behind another piece of shrouding and you  might 
have to slot the upper hole in order to avoid removing additional pieces.
