Muffler buying almost all without hooks?

I need muffler but at internet almost all are without hooks. How am I supposed to hang it up? Weld hooks? I did some hill Billy way with muffler what is on but do not like do it again same way.



Only muffler in 3. photo has hooks and looks proper length. Other mufflers look shorter in photos that I checked at Internet.

Weld on hangers.

I'm in MN. Very difficult to find Muffler at junkyard as is per law required to discard them there.

You can not go to U pull and find muffler there. Was 100 times there.

Yeah, and it has been so since I came here in 97. You can get manifolds there but not muffler from some mentally ill reason.

On my 02 I had a bad muffler. Went to Fleet Farm and got a "Cherry Bomb". Not much weight and IIRC fit between the tailpipe and front pipe. Actually sounded pretty good.
