Welding an exhaust flange - tailpipe!Tonupboy 01-20-2005, 07:07 PM Ok...my tailpipe's gasket crapped out because it was leaking, so I buy a new tailpipe and see that the other flange (muffler end) was rusted off...I dont want to purchase a new muffler because its still good and not corroded. Has anyone else tried to weld an exhaust flange on an otherwise perfectly fine exhaust pipe? Does Meineke do these type of fix?

Definitely, the flange part seems to be not part of the pipe itself so it can but cut. I was wondering if a muffler shop can weld just a flange and bolt on the tailpipe.... iskiuskiweski 01-21-2005, 11:34 AM Only one way to find out. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
