Exhaust parts

Looking to replace exhaust pipe from turbo to muffler inlet for a Cat 330 on a 2004 cheetah 38 pdd chasis.
  • Here is a link to just about anything you might need for an exhaust system. http://www.walkerheavyduty.com/en-US/
  • The down pipe is a very specifically built part. It has a special connection for the turbo and has tight tolerances because it comes very close to other parts. Its bends are extremely tight and mandrel bent.
    I would contact Cat for the part.
  • You can probably get all the parts from a shop catering to diesel trucks or a muffler shop that works on them. Nothing special about the parts. Most likely it's 4in tube. You might take the old one off and take it with you to match the bends. I would replace the clamps while you are at it.

  • Exhaust brake? Check carefully. It is likely that an exhaust brake is bolted to the turbo, so the pipe would go from exhaust brake, not turbo.
