JB weld

[magicdragon]

i personally have never used this stuff before and was wondering if i could use it in the following application




i have exhaust mounts that are currently to short and i need to extended them

would this work or would the JB weld melt from the moderate heat

like i said before, ive never used the stuff before and dont know what its limits are

What do you plan to do. JB Weld is an epoxy. A glue, basically. It's not really "welding" anything. It may withstand the heat, but if you're extending exhaust mounts in the way I'm imagining, it probably won't withstand the stress.

How exactly do you plan on extending them?

no man . what you need to do is see if you can add height by using some washers .or have a fab shop and just make your own ideas.good luck man.

ive never used or messed with the stuff before so thats out of the question thanks

i have somthing like this



sorry about the big pic i just through it together in paint

but the spot were the hanger is on the muffler is to short and puts the thing way out side the car. so i need to make them longer

now that you say its a bad idea then ill just get some cash together and get them welded

Yeah, if you just want to add on to the hangers there, you might have strength issues with JB Weld. Proper welding will hold, though.

measure and mark where you want the mount to be take the muffler to a muffler shop and be nice, and tell the guy you will give him 10.00 for lunch if he will weld it for you , it works for me all the time..
