I just received a new in box muffler that I bought on eBay. Checking the service manual I find it says to install a new front strap and torca clamp.

Do you guys really do this? Tomorrow I'll be at my nearest dealer which is 130 miles away and will see if they have them in stock assuming they are needed.

Nope, and I've changed my muffler 4 times total now on the same clamps. Treat them nicely and no problems.

...I wouldn't get your hopes up WRT the dealer having those clamps.
