Ok ... so catti went ... replaced ... muffler went ... replaced ... NOW the exhaust flex pipe that goes over rear axle right where the bracket to support it to frame had a hole in it ... patched it with exhaust cement. worked great ... month later hole hinge has come off. Not worried about it falling off, just worried about it sounding like battletank driving down road ... is there a way to "patch" the golf ball sized hole, WITHOUT replacing the pipe. Need to quiet it down ?? Oh and Cheapest way ... lol

TIA Matt :confused:

when the exhaust system starts leaking at may different locations , and the pipes are made out of shit steel not stainless steel,you are fighting a loosing battle...

what can happen is the pipe will break off and do serious under body damage,including the tires..gas tank etc...
