Re: Long Time Coming......

The previous post was all last weekend. This post is from today.....


With the new mufflers I was able to place them where I wanted them. Not too low, or in the way at all. Using one of the U bends I cut it right in the middle of the bend and had two identical pieces and used those coming out of the mufflers and over the rear. You may also notice I am using weld on band clamps for the different sections of the exhaust. I really like these for good fitting and leak free connections.







I made these tabs for all the hangers, they use an insulated rubber through bolt connection keeping everything clean and tidy.






And now for the tail pipes.... for those I put the bed back on to make sure I liked where they came out. I want them to be hidden inside the rear fender with just a angled cut tip showing when done. This is where I need two more 45* pieces.



That bracket clamped to the frame is just there to make sure of placement and the two sides matching.
