universal back box fitting

(1/6) > >>

jpc:
hello ive just brought myself a universal back box (boy racer type) it has a 2 1/4 connection bore  which is the same as my range rover 3.9 1989 i think.
is there a kit i can but to fit it (diy) or should i take it to a fitter ?

cheers jon

p.s anyone know what it will sound like when fitted its a savage with 4" exit   :D

Range Rover Blues:
I'd love to hear it when it's done.

The 3.9 exhaust hangs on a bracket just behind the axle, so if you remove the back box and fit your new can it will have to be self-supporting from the existing pipe, cantilevered if you like.  If the fitting is strong enough for this then you can do it yourself.  Make sure it's just clear of the bodywork.

let us know how it sounds :D

jpc:
ill let you know how it sounds  :D  :D  now ive been thinking and if i grind a grove down both sides of the back box outlet and slip it over the existing pipe
then clamp that up (maybe with sealer) then use the bracket that is already holding the back box (its holding on to it at the tail pipe) then i should be ok?


anyway it will be done this weekend    :D

wish me luck :shock:

Range Rover Blues:
Sounds ok, you must have a very early 3.9 then if it's different.

jpc:
my 3.9 is an 89 but i think the bracket holding the tail pipe has been put on buy a previous owner.ill post tomorrow and let you know the outcome.

cheers jp   :D
