On a Ford Aerostar there will be heat shields around the catalytic converter

and various locations of the exhaust system

On the exhaust pipe they are held in place by a rather small width metal band

which I just replace with a worm and gear hose clamp once the bands break

so I don't have to listen to that " tinny " rattle
