Exhaust clamp Clubman

[Mr Ed]

I need an exhaust clamp for a clubman type exhaust. The part where the u-bend meets the main exhaust body. Living in Ireland, scooter shops are few and far between. To get one in a scooter shop in the UK, with postage added it's just silly money. Is there an alternative I could use, something I could buy in a DIY centre or an autofactors. Any ideas lads. Had a look on Corrado's shop (think it's his shop justlambretta) but cant see what I'm looking for.

The scooter loopy John one looks the mutts nuts, but as I mentioned, I'm in Ireland, how much would it cost to get it over to me.

That car one will crush your downpipe on the two parts it touches. It'll also crush the box side into the downpipe, so you can't get it off again. Even if you can force it off, it'll never go on again (properly).

See if you can find a clamp that clamps evenly all the way round, rather than just 'pinching' it.

Bad seal - holed piston.

Cam Lam do a nice one that tightens around the pipe rather than down like the U shaped ones.

Clubmans generally come with these ....



But these are much better ....

The SLJ ones are great but they dont fit all clubmans, just thought you ought to be aware, mine wouldnt fit my KBA, when they do fit they,r the muts nuts though.
