Barry the trick is drill a small hole at the lowest point, infact i think they may have come out of the factory with one. i have had the same exhausts on Puddle Jumper for the last 11 years and i have done many miles, i think its more the stand not doing anything that rots them.

Hi, The first two sets of the exhausts are at the welders being made, once complete I will fit a set to the mortar carrier and take some pictures for those that are interested.
Just a note the pipe and bend sections may possibley be made from stainless steel with a mild steel silencer, all welded. The price is a little more than first expected at £ 300 including VAT a set due to the fact that stainless piping is easier to work with for the tight bends but is a more expensive material and the welding and forming costs are now finalised. Kevin

Hi, Picked up the trial exhausts today and will profile up the welds and paint after checking there fitment to the carrier. Will post up some pics in the next few days. The boxs are zinc coated steel and the tubes are all stainless, To make an all stainless system would be in excess of £500 so this is an afordable alternative.
I am guessing the original systems would of been painted in matt silver/grey?. I am having seven sets made in total. The guy has made a jig for producing them. kevin.

I have fitted the first made exhaust. The finished supplied ones will have stainless pipe right back to the floor casting, all welded.
The final price is a little more than expected £350 a set. I am making 8 sets in total, two for myself so 6 sets are up for grabs, I will be taking two sets to take to Beltring, one set for barry if he still wants a set. Send me an e-mail if you want a set, I know shaun wants a set so first come first served on the remaining 4 sets. kevin.
