defender side exit exhaust


Recommended Posts

I have done a side exit behind the rear wheel, I will take some pictures and post them up later for you. It was spot on and then I fitted a cage which spoilt it slightly, it 'interfered' so it rattled.... the welder fixed that, lets just hope I don't need to remove the exhaust any time soon! :P

Here are some photos,

looks a but Heath Robinson I know but it does the job. The bits are off the shelf bends and straights and were ordered from www.jetex.co.uk

The wheels don't foul on it and removing the rear box has given it a nice sound under load but is no different when cruising, perfect!

If doing it again I would probably have spent a little more time with the tape measure to get the pipe to run straight through the gap in the chassis because it did rattle a little, this was solved with a bit of silicone pipe!

Hope this helps a little,

I did mine with some flexi pipe initially. It survived a longtime but looked like bit of a bodge. I took it to an exhaust place locally and got it made in SS for £100.

I removed the centre box and put in a small cherry, it is louder and im starting to regret fitting one. I have another box waiting to go on (a SS powerflow one) picked up from Ebay for 99p :) but I think its going to make the same noise! :(

the newer version sits more flush with the bodywork.

Here is how I did mine. Made from the standard 200Tdi exhaust. If it ever rots I will have it copied and made from SS :) .

There is also a bracket with rubber damper in the wheel arch but not shown on the pictures.

It is a tight fit. Also made the SS bling bling ring round the exhaust :)
