exhaust clamp

[09heavychevy]

i recently purchased a corsa exhaust for my 2009 5.3l, when i went to install it i noticed the clamp for the converter to flex pipe is heavily rusted and will not come apart andnot be able to be reused.

has anyone else ran into this problem and found clamps available after market or have the dealer part number?

 

any help would be greatly appreciated!

I had this happen to my 2010. Had to order at dealer, don't remember part number.

When I put on my MBRP the bolt was rusted to hell. The head snapped like a twig the moment we applied pressure so I took a screw driver and hammer and used it as a wedge to separte the clamp. I wanted to use a stainless bolt to replace it but couldnt find one in the proper size anywhere local so we drilled out the nut and picked up a SS nut and bolt set and cranked it down really good.

 

But IIRC the clamp itself is stainless, its just the bolt that was mild steel.
