Broken exhaust manifold

Broken muffler #2 today, of course after hours. I am going to call them first thing tomorrow. Just clicked over 51 hours. Hopefully they will be as responsive and accommodating as they were when this happened the first time. Fingers crossed.

Update #1- Spoke with the Service Manager at the Dealer and he said it would be taken care of. I will continue to keep you updates.

There has been issues with the EMAX mufflers for the last few months now. New updated muffler has a brace on it and a bracket that attaches to the alternator. Kit is available. PT# EC110024A

Great news....Dealer sent a service Tech. out to my house and replaced the muffler under warranty. When the Service Manager called me this morning I was a bit uneasy because he started to give the the "Your tractor is the only one that we are seeing this problem with". But in the end, its all good!!
They also delivered the snow plow so I'll be posting pics of the install on that in the coming days. Wish me luck. Oh and feel free to lend any advice if you have installed one.
thanks

Jab,
Just saw this. The Service Tech. did mention something like that but when he said it I was under the impression he meant that if he had to come up with a fix this is pretty much the way he would do it. I'll call the and see if thats something they can do.
Thanks

Mike I hope they did not put the same style muffler back on ! It will probably fail again. Have your dealer order the correct muffler replacement. That original muffler is no longer being used or sold. Give them the PT# I posted. Im sure they robbed another unit to get you up and running.

I am currently in process of having my third muffler put on I had two mufflers of the same design fail where they were hard bolted to the frame then a new muffler without the frame bolt just failed and broke the pipe

I prefer not to to business with Morgan Power Equipment myself.

I agree about not doing business with them

The hard bolt was replaced with a rubber damper. Should be an L bracket mounted to the frame,dampner and holed loop on the pipe. Sounds like the tech is not reading the instructions !

Are they using the same muffler as the origional ? Or Have they put the updated muffler with the new alternator bracket and brace kit in? The update kit should solve the problem.
