u/hubofthevictor · 1 pointr/Audi

Awesome thank you. This looks like the exact part - https://www.amazon.com/Ruien-Hardware-Stainless-Universal-Connector/dp/B07NYBY5W5

Will find a good alternative. Are there any treatments i can put on the metal to help with rust?

u/rustyf1968 · 2 pointsr/XVcrosstrek

None of the above! I made my own muffler delete for less than $20. I bought a universal Flange and elbow and welded them together and trimmed the outlet side to length (see amazon links for parts below):

Walker 31880 Exhaust Flange
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0015KWFB6/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_1ijQDbN7B0DVB

Walker Exhaust 41001 Exhaust Pipe Walker Elbow
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001P2FPOI/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_qgjQDbK8CGNAD

This was done on my 2013, although I suspect it would work on the 2018+ also.

I am sure you could do this without a welder using JB Weld or similar cold welding compound. It doesn't look pretty like the aftermarket systems but its also a tiny fraction of the price and you can't see mine anyways; it exits just like the stock one did just on the other side of the car. I was surprised how quiet it is. It can be alittle drony under high load or WOT but very pleasant all other times.

u/MilmoWK · 1 pointr/Cartalk

Something like a set of these might actually do it for you. Or two of these. i don't know what size you need measure and order the correct size, but i do know that you are missing the flanges, they probably rotted off. you will also need to reform the shape of joint, it looks like the intermediate pipe hit the ground, hit it with a hammer a few times. and there is a donut gasket

heres what it should like like when you're done

u/Gift_of_Intelligence · 1 pointr/MechanicAdvice

Well, you can buy exhaust clamps with hangers. Like this or this. Check those for sizing before you order! I didn't look up the correct exhaust diameter for your Cherokee.

You probably don't need a new cat, and many mufflers bolt directly to the catalytic converter flange. From there back you will definitely need new pipe.

Whether you should have one built or build one yourself depends on your money situation and your gumption. A muffler shop can probably fab up a muffler and tailpipe for around $250 for cheap, and on these, that'll last around five years.

u/miket0429 · 2 pointsr/WRX

I have the nameless axleback 4 inch tips and the gap between the tip and the bumper is around 1-1.5 inch with the stock hangers. So i bought the yellow adjustable hangers and now the gap is only like 0.25 inch. Looks much better!

u/kizz12 · 3 pointsr/ft86

Try to loosen the s, mid and front pipe a little, sliding the mufflers on the OG hangers and if you can't get it how you want, try these. Each notch is about 1cm maybe a little more. You can tell mine hangs a bit lower now but from a standing position they look perfect.

u/Err0rless · 2 pointsr/ElCamino

Thanks! I've got it held down with a set of valve cover brackets on the inside, works really well. https://www.amazon.com/Spectre-Performance-Valve-Cover-Clamp/dp/B000BPZ4PK

u/fishallthethings · 1 pointr/CherokeeXJ

Damn that looks good. Flex joints are what I was hoping for.

How long did it take you to install? It looks like there are a million little pieces to keep track of.

Was cleaning/scraping the block difficult?

And did you have to buy any other parts like Amazon suggests:
https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-03408-Exhaust-Flange-Hardware/dp/B00068PTHK/ref=pd_bxgy_263_img_2/147-7626014-2951415?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=NTXVWZ8FM0C442YGJ4D0&dpID=41neLQCv7AL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=detail

I am going to just assume that you bought the new seal, so no need to ask about that.

u/Eddysuhn · 3 pointsr/CherokeeXJ

UPDATE!

Found it on amazon!
https://www.amazon.com/Walker-36377-Exhaust-Hanger/dp/B000C8ZB1I/ref=pd_sbs_263_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000C8ZB1I&pd_rd_r=B8SF2EGW6VG311HXPSM9&pd_rd_w=1isUb&pd_rd_wg=Z5FDT&psc=1&refRID=B8SF2EGW6VG311HXPSM9

The reason I originally asked was because it's getting in the way of where my new hitch would bolt on. Looks like I'll have to remove this, then make a bracket that'll hold up a new one.

u/Douche_Baguette · 3 pointsr/Volkswagen

I got exhaust cutouts for the Audi, and the girlfriend picked me up a pair of front swaybar end links also (the ones on the car click really loud).

Mom got me a "Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy an Audi S6" shirt. :)

u/ohgreatballs · 2 pointsr/subaru

Mine don't stick out quite that much

3.5" Staggered double wall. I did by these bushings but I don't know why that would help really.

u/Y0ur_mother · 1 pointr/cars

I went to replace the muffler on my car and the flange on the cat just crumbled away. I used a clamp on flange like this or this.

u/Tools4Tyler · 1 pointr/JeepTJ

I'm thinking about getting two of these

TOTALFLOW TF-U600 Natural Finish 6" 304 Stainless Steel Saddle U-Bolt Exhaust Muffler Clamp 6" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BK1CCT9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_-09xDbBE0S098

(the size I'll need)

Then drilling a hole through the base and putting a bolt through the hole, with a washer and a wing nut to clamp the lift down

And mounting it my roll bar, tucked as high as the hard top will allow, thoughts on that?

u/MedCityMoto · 1 pointr/Triumph

I got an answer for y'all:

The clamps on the header-to-midpipe size are 47-51mm (or something to fit a 1.5" I.D. hose, ranging 1.85" - 2") and brand used is commonly Mikalor.

If you're on the hunt in the US, I'm not finding them readily on Amazon but I'll keep looking.

Edit: Bam - $10 from Amazon.

u/OMW · 3 pointsr/Welding

If it's south Fl and he's been four wheeling, there's a good chance that the exhaust is pretty sketch to begin with. It's not fun trying to bend and weld the 3/8" rod for an OEM rubber donut hanger to paper thin rusty crusty exhaust while lying on your back in the driveway (been there, done that). If the exhaust is as bad as a typical Fl mud truck you really don't want to be welding on it anyway and a 360 swivel hanger will most likely be stronger than whatever was originally on there.

If there's a hole in the pipe where the weld on the OEM rod hanger got ripped off but the pipe is otherwise structurally sound, you can put a SS band clamp over the damaged bit and call it good. Make sure you ask the parts guy for a flat band clamp, not a step band clamp and be sure to measure first to get the right size because they don't have much "fudge factor".

Sounds ghetto, but I'm no stranger to working with what you've got.

u/blancomonkey · 1 pointr/MechanicAdvice

In a pinch literally, get one of these, bought them for half the price amazon lists.

https://www.amazon.com/Nickson-177-Split-Flange-2-2/dp/B000COY5PK

u/Freekmagnet · 3 pointsr/Justrolledintotheshop

This is still how some people do things. You can buy little c-clamps made especially for this purpose:

u/Atario · 1 pointr/katawashoujo

It involves one of these and some squatting

u/RayBrower · 6 pointsr/CherokeeXJ

Walker makes a replacement of the factory hanger. It just bolts on...if you can get the old ones off first.
