I've been trying to fit an MBD exhaust bracket to my JL3 today and pretty sure it can only fit one way but it would not line up any where near the bracket on the end can :?

Have there been any design changes in the past ? My exhaust is knocking on a bit now so it's possible I suppose??

I know that the arm on the endcan is in a different position on JL1 & JL2. Have you bought a replacement can?

No Martin, not a replacement can BUT..

I was looking at a couple of exhausts today with the same bracket fitted and noticed they sit a lot higher than mine, then I realised that like a fool I never tried undoing the two bolts on the main bracket to lift it higher, I left them tightened and expected the MB bracket to fit in the same place DOH! :oops:

So, I'll be trying it again tomorrow - it may even solve the problem I have with the u bend tw@77ing the LHS rear runner when I hit a pothole or cross a speed bump :D

Will let you know...
