exhaust size

Post by tonydbird »

Hey guys ,

I scored the net to try and find out the size of the exhaust pipe between the 2 boxes, and I've come up with nothing.

As in a previous post regarding the exhaust making a noise I can confirm it is the pipe hitting the real axle ,my plan is/was to put a small extension piece in the pipe between the two boxes to give me the extra clearance over the axle.

What do ya guys think? would you recommend this?

Its defiantly some aftermarket crap that was put on it hence it not fitting correctly.

Any help as always is appreciated...

I would put a bit of rubber around the rear axel with some cable ties to stop the noise. Or you can loosen both joints and twist the exhaust pieces to try create more clearance above the axel. If you do it that way you will have to re apply paste to the joints because it will have cracked and won't be a tight seal anymore. Hope this helps!

Poly bush exhaust hangers worked for me but i did cable tie a strip of rubber round the axle
