it was some scrap I had laying out back of my shop
1½" square x ¼" wall ......2x2 x ¼ angle for the mount....4" square cut on an angle for the trans mount piece

Mitered and tig welded 100% penetration on all the joints...very sturdy piece
It clears the exhaust where I cut holes in the trailing arm mount cross member

Although I won't be lowering this truck...I still wanted the exhaust up high and out of sight from the side....

This trans was out of a TransAm...thus the mounting holes for the torque arm on the tailshaft housing
A couple more pics

you can see the hole in the cross member where the exhaust pipe goes through
