mbrp exhast came in yesterday and i was wondering if i should get band clamps for it instead of the regular exhast clamps the come with it?

Band clamps are a great idea, we can get them if you can't source them locally.

 

[hillbilly6.6]

ya the napa by my house has them i figured the would be better

 

[Meyerperformance]

I highly recommend getting them, Ss if they have them to.

 

[hillbilly6.6]

sweet thanks

 

[gr8shot]

Yeah they're nice in case you ever want to remove the exhaust or change it or anything. The crush clamps are pretty much a one time thing. The exhaust is on for good after you tighten up the crush clamps good and tight Takes a lot of effort to get it back off anyway lol

What difference will it make?

 

[HuskerDiesel]

I hope you are both talking about AccuSeal clamps, not "band clamps" right?

you want this

not this

 

[boccheballs]

I thought he was going to tell a story.....this one time and band clamp

 

[hillbilly6.6]

whats the diff?

 

[Meyerperformance]

The Band clamps are available in different widths. What you want is the top picture.

Band Clamp is the common name.

I still dont understand the diffrence in those 2 clamps, is it just the width?

 

[HuskerDiesel]

no, the AccuSeal clamps are much thicker, and will actually clamp something, where the band clamps are very thin and conform to different surfaces, IE flex pipe over regular pipe for stack kits, ect.

 

[hillbilly6.6]

who has the AccuSeal clamps?

 

[HuskerDiesel]

we have them ready to ship today... Let me know if I can help.

so is this why i couldnt get my front pipe and exhaust apart?? cause the stupid clamps it comes with?

 

[DirtyMaxx03]

[hillbilly6.6]
