I told Les at Jayco that I figured that my wonderful job fixing the hanger may be causing a whine. I was rather pleased with his response (below). At times I get the feeling Jayco isn't listening but Les sure seems to alter that opinion whenever I have contact with him.

I found his comment on the drive shaft interesting. I can probably test that pretty quickly by taking off my chain links and wire. If the whine/loud hum disappears I'll know that was it. I

Now the PITA trying to identify a local exhaust specialist. Most are for cars and that is not what I need - I don't think? Then, if we need a driveshaft specialist, more fun.

Don, the exhaust bracket on my Seneca 34SS failed on a Saturday in Grande Prairie, Alberta, on our way back from Alaska, The local Midas shop was able to attach a custom heave duty hanger that has worked well for over a year now. $100.00 CD.

Don, I'll take some pics of the hanger the next time I go to the rig.
I think a reinforced rubber hanger is the key to isolating noise and vibration, as well as a down turned exhaust tip (Gibson) to divert fumes and soot.

Mine looks a little different, but the same basic idea.
