The present invention is directed to a mounting system for a gas turbine transition duct. The mounting system includes a generally C-shaped mounting bracket having a generally radially extending first portion, an arc-shaped second portion, and a generally radially extending third portion. Each of the first portion and third portion includes a spherical bearing and the second portion has a plurality of sets of mounting holes. In another embodiment of the present invention, a gas turbine transition duct is provided having a panel assembly, an aft frame secured to the panel assembly and a mounting system for securing the transition duct to a turbine inlet. The panel assembly includes two formed sheets of metal secured together along axial seams. The panel assembly is secured to an aft frame that is capable of expanding in the circumferential direction due to thermal growth. The mounting system comprises a generally C-shaped mounting bracket having a generally radially extending first portion, an arc-shaped second portion, and a generally radially extending third portion. Each of the first portion and third portion includes a spherical bearing and the second portion has a plurality of sets of mounting holes.
