A 2" clamp on each down pipe, and a 2 1/4 inch clamp on the cat side of each joint. Pic from above showing this Alles klar. Wieder Dank! | ||

These are the only MB original whole flanges you can add without cutting the pipe and rewelding.

hipine Date registered: Jul 2006 Location: US, CO, Bailey Vehicle(s): 460 1980 280GE w. 617A | RE: Exhaust clamp rusted/leaking Funny! Just had to do the same thing on the Baby G (84 230GE). On that one the two pipes going into the front (transverse) resonator are only about an inch apart, wall to wall so those bolt-together clamps would never fit. I got some "Walker" brand 2-piece clamps that are made of a stack of steel plates riveted together that interlace at the holes where the bolts go through. Clever design. Even those I had to remove about 1/2 of their width in the area where the two clamps pass next to each other between the pipes. It was a very fiddly operation, but it did work. Who knows how long they'll last, but it's quiet for now. If I get desperate, I still have G-Zilla's old take-off exhaust set-up (no resonator) that I could substitute. -Dave G. PS- here's the type of flange repair kit I used (with a little modification): http://www.autopartsway.com/part.cfm?31884/wk&g=1&gclid=cm6zhozst8w... Edited by hipine 4/30/2016 8:42 PM | ||

Time Valve is a long time MB Club of America member and vendor that has been making faithful reproductions of factory MB exhaust systems *In Stainless Steel* for many, many years. Worth a call. If he does not have it, he will make it based on your original parts. Prices are good. http://www.timevalve.com/ | ||

Go underneath your truck with an inch caliper and start measuring tube diameters. This will guide your flange selection. I have abunch of spares after replacing 2/3 of my exhaust system (main and center mufflers). | ||

Their wholesale site is 32% off of retail prices. Oembenzparts.com I'll need two of the pre-cat split flanges as well. I do have some extras from the G500 as I bought a new center and main muffler that came with flanges of course. Check the classifieds. Edited by otiswesty 7/14/2017 12:41 AM | ||
