western Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 if your using a Defender spec 200tdi then you could make the TD downpipe fit or get the correct Defender 200tdi pipe. if it's a Discovery type then better to either make a pipe up or the Steve Parker version.

Mo Murphy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Exhaust flexi doesn't last long lapperz, I tried it in several locations on exhausts over the years and within a couple of months it has split. Time to learn to weld if you can't already Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderzander Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 That said I used a flexi link on my Td5 and was really impressed with the quality of it. It welded really well and was quite a substantial thing. Good price too. So if you were to cut the exhaust flange you could weld it directly to it - only question is if it would flex enough for you. Here is a thread with pics of my flexi pipe being fitted. This is the stuff I bought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
