I have a five foot piece here for the ****** jeep, if ya need it.
I haven't tried a muffler place yet. Tried all the parts stores around here as well as on-line. Everyone seems to start at 2 inch. I'm sure a lawn mower place might have a piece, but I need about 5 or 6 feet. Most of the Jap stuff you speak of have what I need, sorta, so I figured a replacement wouldn't be too hard to find. WRONG!

Claude, I thought about black iron, but it just seems a shame to cobble sumpthin' like that together on a nice new generator mounted to a nice new trailer!

Afternoon coffee is on, (seein' as how that HazMat, I mean Madhat administrator guy ain't here to do it!)

Scott, since all you're doing is generator exhaust a 1.5" to 2" bell reducer might be an easier item to find plus a muffler shop could probably swedge one for you from scrap if need be. I think I have a link for a place you could order one from. If you don't find one local, let me know.

Don't forget a rain cap for the topper.

advance has a TON of exhaust size adapters, maybe put a few together, but they will have what you need to fit it.


on a side note, some idiot is going thru our neighborhood trying to steal large breed dogs, probably to kill in fight training.

can i cap a guy for stealing my dog? that dog is like a member of the family...

stay outta the dumpsters though, remnants stick in your hair.......


THANKS for the peppermint, bourbon, and lots of blankets advice, guys! my husband hasn't stopped smiling.......hot tea with honey was good for me throat. ARRRRRR!

Heidi clueless in NY; not sleepless in Seattle

Morning... I brewed some real coffee... looks like the DTR janitor/admin wannabe is busy doing wannabe admin jobs...

Fog was thick as crap this morning... ran over 3 cars before I realized I was in a parking lot, and not the road...

Came in this morning and discovered that I murdered the morning report on friday, and I forgot to add a kid to the roster... sweatin bullets till I found out what I did. It was the dyno day... it had my mind tangeled up...

Ya'll have a good one, be safe out there.
