Tractorman Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Fitting a new rigid downpipe to a straight through system and having a couple of issues... back box and straight through pipe fitted and sitting well, new downpipe a PITA.. holes on the mounting flange were too small and needed redrilling, now fitted but sits about 2 inches to the left of the centre pipe. is this a bad downpipe or does the centre section flex that much to join up? if so would seem to put a lot of stress on the manifold? I think the flange is welded on wrong, but would like to know if anyone else has had problems?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igol Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The only issue I recall when I decatted mine and fitted a defender downpipe was the fiddling around to get it past the cross members and bodywork. Once I clicked that I just needed to jack up the cab it slotted in no probs then it was the normal selection of skinned knuckles and blood when trying to fit the rubber hangers.
