Correcto.

I had purchased a on as you describe to use but the threads on each side were too large to fit my purpose and I wasn't able to source a smaller one or interested in drilling out the pipe. It was a 5 minute fix for me as the old one had disintergrated.

The setup I have isn't technically floating and more of a fixed sturdy solution, however it still allows some movement of the pipe when required. End of the day overall vibes reduced, and the horrible noise on decel has stopped. It used to kick in in half a ride.

My pipe had actually started to wear a groove into the spigot plate before doing this from continually moving under engine load.
