Cat installation ?

I finally broke down and bought a new Cat for my 88 F250 w/351 Windsor. Now maybe my truck can get out of it's own way.

I had to drop the front pipes and break the cat away from the front on my bench, in the process I broke off the (very rusty) hanger on the front pipe flange (where it connects to the cat)

Any idea if I can get this part seperate from the front pipe? Or any ideas on a workaround hanger, I can't see how the standard universal hanger options could work.

Thanks, Drew

My dad took some gas tank strapping he got from autozone and welde it to the pipe. Then he took a self driller/tapper screw and a piece of soft rubber and drilled it into the cab. I don't know if this'll work for you, but it works for him and don't make much noise.
