The spare carrier is taking a backfoot.

I decided to attempt my stainless steel exhaust for the Delica van.

I've had the pipes, bends, resonator, turbo flange, band clamps and the flex joiner in storage for as long as the bike project...

Just didn't have the courage to attempt it welding skill wise...but the current exhaust is rotten so its a matter of putting what skill gained welding I have to the job at hand.

Paying the extra for push fit expanded pipe bends and fittings helped with alignment and made welding much more forgiving than but end joins...so that's my tip.

I just wanted to show what 160amp/240v gasless stainless steel welding wire can do...

Had to crank up the amps on the welder to 11. "its all she's got captain"
if your on 110v then I'd recommend a welder no less than 200amps..

Stainless steel needs heat for penetration and puddling.

Is it TIG fusion weld quality...heck no.

But its good enough for an exhaust pipe that wont be seen...yes.
