SWTSMBO lost the middle box front joint (and almost the whole box), when it failed she drove it home past several police officers, none even looked at her...The replacement straight pipe sorted the problem with broken down and tail pipes the diesel disco's are prone to with the monster front box swinging load on the system.

Clamps you used where about one size too big so wasnt biting quite right. Dont know when you did that but xxx months of swinging free looseded that back to front affair on the manifold. Great globs of gun gum and a new U-Bold and its fixed.
I WAS about 20 seconds from sealing the sleve you used from hanging to the exhaust till I woke up and realised it would acheive nothing at all :)
