Any way to get the header clamps (by footpeg) off ?
 

Got some new second hand cans today, but they're not with the clamps for the headers to the midsection.

People just using jubilee clips as a compromise ?

Looking at my clamps on std cans, i can't see them coming off as welded on the underside ?

Hmmmm loads on Ebay. Cool. Cheap as you like too.

What's the Diameter i need please gents, don't have anything to measure it easily.

Hmmm i get it to be about 46mm using my crude measuring of a 145mm diameter.

hiya....do you mean that your existing ones are welded to the pipes??

anyways..a jubilee is not a strong enough clamp as they are only soft alloy...you need a stainless clamp.....why not give the ex-CCC guy a pm...Simon Cope..to buy a couple, they should not cost too much. his new company is called POWERTECH 01253 891087

OK??/ Happy modding!!!!:grouphug5:

Yup, existing ones do not seem to want to move... looking on the underside they seem to be 'stuck' there (opposite side to bolt/clamp) so i'm assuming some sort of little weld etc.

Will do mate... thanks :)

they shouldn't be welded on.....

Hmmmmm maybe a little brute force is needed then :)

bit of wood/plastic and a hammer round the edges evenly...or just try to rotate it a little to start...

try not to crack your headers tho........maybe take the headers off to do it, and get some new manifold gaskets?

Tried... doesn't want to know... Seems on the underside it's crimped with a punch of some description. To save doing any damage i've ordered 2 stainless clamps in a 43-47mm. Should hopfully fit.
