Two Bro's Exhaust (spring style) - Broken Flange - Welding/Mending Advice Needed!
The inlet flange on my F4i's spring-style Two Brother's exhaust can is broken. I don't have the broken-off flange piece either to get it welded back on. I called Two Bro's, and they recommended a new inlet flange and V.A.L.E. adapter for a total of $160 + S&H, which was more than I was hoping to spend to fix my mistake!!
In order to save a few $$, I'm thinking of having an auto shop just weld the mid-pipe to the exhaust pipe all the way around, so it will be 1 airtight piece. Does anyone have advice or warnings about this?
Also, I'd like to shorten my exhaust. I figured while I'm at it, I could rotate the inlet flange 180 degrees when re-installing, so that the cracked side faces in toward the swing arm.
