Hi

Just wanted to let everyone know that, after I priced all the stock components for a new diesel exhaust, I took the Vanagon to the guys at Classic Muffler in Woodland, California and had them make me a new custom one. We salvaged most of the pipe from the manifold down and welded a new pipe and muffler and installed a hanger and tailpipe. Total cost $56 with a one year guarantee. It would be $30 more for a lifetime guarantee. It sounds and looks good and doesn't vibrate. I'm not sure how long it will last with the vibrations from the engine but the price was right for now with vacation coming up.

Thanks to everyone who replied.
