Flexi Joint.
« on: 05 August 2013, 23:31:48 »

Would this type of pipe be ok to replace an original flexi exhaust joint? Would save having to weld it.......hopefully.

Hope the link works.

A friend of mine got a clamp on type one, depite me telling him its a weld on job only, think it lasted about 4 weeks.

Then he ignored my second advise and went and got a Pattern Cat Downpipe fitted.  ::)

As above, weld part only and don't be tempted with pattern cat!
