Do you see what I see???

[mike1303]

Was under the ute today. Chasing a rattle (god help me)
And found a nice surprise!

Can you see what I see?

 

[andrew0]

I had a cracking look. Felling exhausted after you dumped this guessing game on me.

 

[mike1303]

Hahahahaha!!

 

[andrew0]

Is that an after market one?

 

[mike1303]

Sadly yes, 18 months old

 

[Old.Tony]

It must be the camera angle, the impeller housing looks to have shifted.

 

[mike1303]

Not the best spot. But the best I can do

 

[Ben_W]

Is that a crack in the dump pipe? I thought you said it was a nice surprise!

 

[mike1303]

Sure is! Haha

Not so nice.
Been told once they start they don't stop, so best to replace the lot!

Duh! Just realised Andrew0 beat me to it with his cryptic answer! Well played, Sir!

 

[andrew0]

What brand was it??

 

[mike1303]

Xforce
Bloody rubbish!!
Although, I've spoken with people who have had beau systems and the same thing

 

[Old.Tony]

What would happen if you MIG'd it? If you don't know anyone with a MIG and feel like a drive, I've got one in the shed.

 

[mike1303]

That's something I was thinking about just before tony....but then thought, it's a right prick of a job to remove the dump pipe.... And if I'm gonna HAVE to do it, I'm inclined to put a brand new one in there. With a bung this time for a egt then need to replace it in another 6 months....

I actually thought tig welding would be better

Edit:::::: reason above^^^^^ would be my option too.

 

[mike1303]

Spoke with the company who sold it. Luckily I'm still in warranty!
Not going to stop me saving for a new better system though

 

[Jased22]

Spewin mate. Yeah xforce arnt the greatest. As you can tell by the price

 

[mike1303]

Spewin mate. Yeah xforce arnt the greatest. As you can tell by the price

Funny you say that actually. Because that company nathand22 got his off for his ranger make their own and cost the same as the xforce system....

Does anyone here know if it's worth buying stainless over mild steel??

 

[Jased22]

Lol ok buddy. But xforce have a bad rep

 

[mike1303]

I'm not saying xforce is any good mate. Just an observation through my looking at a replacement system.

Ive spoken with guys who have a beaudessert system and had it crack too.its really the luck of the draw sometimes hey.
