Any welded exhaust cracks?
 

Has any one welded exhaust pipe cracks?

The crack in my exhaust is right next to a welded bracket for the heat shields and I think it can be welded. The rest of the pipe looks and feels pretty thick. I may try this fix. :)

I would think it would work fine as long as it is a stress crack and not from rust. Surrounding rust would be the only limiting factor I could forsee. Go for it! :)

I just welded up an exhaust crack in front of the center cat. It was split probably halfway around.

Dave, Nice to see you catching up on your reading. Eh? The crack I had was right next to the bracket for the heat shield mounting. Mine cracked cause I ran over a muffler that did not quite fit under the exhaust pipes. The shop added a plate welded it up. The pipes are a lower grade of stainless not cooking quality. :)

Yup, catching up quick now. After I'm caught up here I move on to Mod Mania and then General SVX Babble.

I may have made the crack in my exhaust worse when I bottomed out going through a slow intersection too fast. (2 crowns in the road)

I had one crack welded about a week ago and an elbow replaced, and spent all day last Saturday getting a crack welded and my rotors put on and brakes serviced.

I has also had a crack welded (behind the driver's side cat) some time ago and it's still holding.

Oh, and had the gaskets replacd at the Y pipes last weekend also. She's "graveyard quiet" again. :D
