Hi,
I am making some carrier exhaust boxs at the moment, I have both kinds of the original ones here (squared off and rounded top ones). I have the exhaust bafflers made up and am working on the pipe bends at the moment, I think I can knock them out for £200 a set of two which includes the long pipes back to the exhaust cast floor plates, so basically a complete exhaust system in mild steel. The long pipes would be welded to the bottom bend as per originals. Ideally these exhausts are best fitted with the rear axle removed but can be fitted with the axle in place if you remove the rear tool plate and have plenty of patience and ground clearance to twist them into position, (those who have done it know what I am talking about), last thing you want is to put a connecting clamp between the bottom bend and the straight pipe part. I will post some picks once I have the bends made and welded. kevin.

Yes count me in. I'm just looking into the possibility of making some out of stainless. As you know 'cos' they sit up right. All the condersation sits in the bottom and rots them though quickly. But, I'll have a set in mild and do the stainless thing next time. Barry |

Barry the trick is drill a small hole at the lowest point, infact i think they may have come out of the factory with one. i have had the same exhausts on Puddle Jumper for the last 11 years and i have done many miles, i think its more the stand not doing anything that rots them.
TTFN Shaun

Hi, The first two sets of the exhausts are at the welders being made, once complete I will fit a set to the mortar carrier and take some pictures for those that are interested.
Just a note the pipe and bend sections may possibley be made from stainless steel with a mild steel silencer, all welded. The price is a little more than first expected at £ 300 including VAT a set due to the fact that stainless piping is easier to work with for the tight bends but is a more expensive material and the welding and forming costs are now finalised. Kevin
