06 TXT clone muffler continued
I gave and got some input and posted pictures in previous threads about my VC clone exhaust. I need to get the muffler up higher and needed it moved forward. One local shop I visited said they didn't have the pipe bending dies and weren't that comfortable doing it anyway. Two shops said no since it is a golf cart. Today I took off work and drove 50 min. to a bigger town. The young owner that looked at the cart talked to me for over an hr. The conversation went back and forth with him saying he couldn't do it and me saying okay I'll look elsewhere and him coming back with maybe he could do it. I even showed him the pictures of Sschifer's exhaust that he posted. In the end I knew he was trying his best but wasn't comfortable so I left.
I've decided to do it myself. in a previous thread Skoal82 said he just cut the pipe back. At first I was concerned that this would leave it too low allowing the hot muffler to hit field grass. The truth is, how much is an extra 8" higher going to matter, when the grass is that high anyway. The question that remains is what to do about a hanger. If Skoal82 is out there I'd like a picture of what you did. Between yours and other pictures you guys have shared I'm sure I can make this work. |

Re: 06 TXT clone muffler continued
I used a hangar from autozone for a few dollars. However I put it where I wanted and zapped it to the frame with the welder, so it was easy for me, but they have many holes in them for bolts. You can buy 1" pipe many places mostly for gokart stuff, some have also used conduit pipe from hardware places. You may have to get it welded but any muffler place or welding place can do that.
