Exhaust stack on B3030 with cab

That is a very good job. You must be very good and bending tubing. That thing looks like it is factory. Very nice!

Great job on the exhaust. Where did you get the vibration isolator?

Note of caution : you're going to get banned for those girly pictures on the wall of the garage I havm experience, used a bad word for tushy once on here.

Thanks Guys, ...You can get the vibration isolator at any Auto parts store it works very well. If I had to do it again I would forget the 3 bolt exhaust flange and just weld the isolator to the pipe, the isolator does not come with the flange. I thought it would be nice to be able to take the pipe apart but it's not needed and justs adds bulk , the pipe as one whole piece goes on and off the tractor very easy.

Hi ficord.

The pics are not on the server any longer. Can you please re-post them somewhere so I can look at them?

I have a B3000 and have the same problem with the odor of diesel. I'd like to make a copy of your exhaust modification.

Thanks.

No flipper, would hit the garage door on the way out. I also went with the pipe straight up since i want the exhaust to blow up not back.
Well it took some doing but its on the B3030 works well and sounds really good. And it blows high up into the air, no diesel smells around the tractor.
Bringing the sample pipe to the exhaust shop did not work out quite as I expected I still had to cut weld and bend the pipe even after it was made. You really have to make the pipe as you go, I also installed a short flex pipe since the cab is rubber mounted and moves. I took allot of extra time making sure there was no stress on the pipe when mounting it all lines up very well i used only three mounting brackets and only had to drill one hole at the edge of the cab, I used the top hole in the mirror braket and one of the bolt holes of the FEL
I will wait on a guard and see how it holds up under use, besides I like the way it blends in with the frame of the cab. Here are some more pictures. http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/6/0/8/2/4/5/webimg/96932367_o.jpg
