Decat Sections
I’m going to be taking out the gearbox and transfer box on my puma to change the clutch for the clutchfix kit. I’m also thinking of changing the exhaust for these 2 sections:

Decat:

Centre section:

Does anyone know if new bolts/nuts will be included if not what would you all suggest?

Cheers

Replaced the centre exhaust piece with a Terrafirma product - it came without new bolts/nuts and I used the old ones without trouble. But if severely rusted it may be better to replace with new.

Who does your MOT's?

You might have to put the cat back on each time to pass the visual check for the presence of a CAT, but it depends how much of a blind eye your tester wants to turn. Wink

The nuts on the manifold will probably come undone ok and be resuable if you soak them in penetrating fluid. The ones under the car, just have a look and see what state they're in they might well still be in good nick.

MOT gets done by Engine710 in south queensferry. Just had it done last month with no issue whatsoever.

It’s the original exhaust that is still in place and the bolts/nuts for the centre section are in pretty poor condition from just a quick visual check. Am I right in guessing that there is only a gasket between the centre and rear sections?

mine 2011 the down pipe to centre section is a cup and cone affair, the centre to rear I cant remember but I reassembled with exhaust putty and all good, my CAT however was not touched DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy
