Redneck Exhaust Pipe Repair !

Here is how I fixed my Broken Exhaust Pipe... Redneck Style !

[@ncrdisabled]

Great video!! Do you want real closterfobic I spent 7 years in the NAVY on submarines . I was on SSBN 619 634 and the USS bonefish . The 2 SSBN got out around more than 70 days . When you start sub school there are 35 guys then by the time you actually go out to sea only 20 or so make it. I would have stayed in for 20 years as I was already a e-5 . But it was not in the cards a torpedo reload test made the stupid torpedo swing and crush me . Now I have no use from the waist down. I have a morphine pump but I get to sit and watch you great videos !!!!

[@Redneckmfg]

OOOH Man, I cannot imagine being down in a Sub for any amount of time ... I am 6' 4" I would have had the longest running head ache in the history of the Navy.... I was also in the Navy VFA-125 Stationed in NAS Lemoore California... Loved what I was doing ((AMS on F/A-18 - The Hornet)) and love my Duty Station... But, after 4 years I had had enough.. LOL Thank you for your Service, sorry to hear of your injury... Have a Great Memorial Day weekend.. and Keep watch MY Videos... LOL

[@DLee1923]

John Murphy I realize this is months later, and thank you for your service, & so sorry for your disability ! Can I ask what you meant by "they could've made 'non-addicting pain meds', but then it'd mean no repeat customers because 'no more pain' " ? I've never heard they could do that. Thanks.

[@ryoamora8655]

Closterfobic?? Really? LMAO... The answer is, "What is Claustrophobic, Alex."

[@Redneckmfg]

How are you doing theses days Sub Vet ??? Haven't heard from you in a while...

[@checktheplaylist101]

thx man... remember USS LIBERTY

[@MrMichaelmager]

Everyone wants to criticize him for the repair. But sometimes you have to do what you can to get by untill you have the money to repair it properly. I used the same metal duct/flashing tape on my exhaust as a "temporary repair". It worked pretty well. There was a bad smell from the glue heating up on the exhaust from the tape but it passed over time. But sometimes you have to do what you have to to get by.

[@Redneckmfg]

You are the first person to understand … Thank You Michael for understanding....

[@AJ........]

That HVAC foil tape is more expensive than a universal flange adapter to fix it right...js

[@Redneckmfg]

But the Value that this video has made to my channel ended up being PRICELESS !!!! This was just an idea for a KZbin Video.. I replaced this exhaust with a Cat Back Banks system... Thanks for Watching...

[@jimmynorris1006]

Agreed

[@Kelloggs99]

How long did this last you?

[@samc265]

This saved me being able to go to work with my car until I was able to get it fixed. Thank you!!!!

[@rickchristensen3636]

We all have tried some kind of patching at one time. I did a little stick weld tacking and the guy doing the inspection could tell and said I'll let it go this year, I can't remember what I did the following year. Great video!

[@Saint696Anger]

🤣 I thought I was the only one who did embarrassing shit like this 👍

[@ljaysperspective1775]

Great job you have todo what you have to-do! I just repaired my exaust manifold with half a can of tomatoe sauce (the can stuff) some chimney paste, a Strip of muffler wrap and 2 hose clamps. 99 Ford F 150 with 329k miles ( no engine light on) is as quite as a church mouse. I plan on buying both exhaust manifolds but meanwhile this contraption will suffice. Thx for sharing

[@Redneckmfg]

Thanks for watching ! Yeah this fix didn't last very long at all... But I just needed something to hold me over till my new system came in … It worked well enough to hold the pipe inline so the soot didn't continue to build up under my truck...

[@murrayent1able]

What ever it takes for an quick fix until you ready.👍🏿

[@joserodriguez-tf2et]

I remember doing all kind of repair when I first got married in 70, only got paid 3.15 an hour so you did whatever it took, no garage and in the winter, living on a country house. use lots of cans, coat hangers, what ever I could find!

[@markstevansen542]

Super glad I've got the benefit of having an everlast welder in my shop. I hate welding overhead but for something like this it's not so mad.

[@rejmonwilson]

I have the same setup, on my 2005 f150. All the exhaust pipes, mufflers etc, all rust out after two years. So I fix them as they rust, do not matter what what it's look like.

[@Redneckmfg]

I have since replaced this with a cat back system from Banks.. But yeah it stinks that they cant make anything that lasts anymore.... Make it cheaper so the CEO can get his big azz Bonus !!!!! Thanks for watching & for the comment

People already came back to Earth from the Moon using fixes that these. Thanks for the video.

Soup can to your sized liking for exhaust clamps and some muffler cement works good too..!

[@pcno2832]

I like the use of the wire and the thought of the electrical tape buried in there roasting away. But you need clamps to make it all hold together. I'd use lots of foil tape first, then the wire, then more foil tape (lots of it!) , then a bunch of hose clamps.

[@Redneckmfg]

Thanks for watching this was only a temp fix until I received my Banks exhaust system in UPS... The foil tape burned thru in less then 6 hours.. LOL

[@samforsyth]

haha spray paint it black, nobody would notice! Thanks for the awesome video!

[@johnselekta]

Baked bean or soup cans + jubilee clips (with a bit of rtv for a better seal) won't melt smelly plasctic on your truck and would be using cheaper items from your garage

[@rydoll3056]

whats the silver tape called that you used ??

I have submitted my idea to their CEO and he has agreed to share his 6 figure bonus with me... He informed me that it was his idea to save the company millions of dollars by buying the exhaust systems from a third world county who has agreed to make them from substandard metal that was recycled from illegal opiate operation factory covered with second hand chicken house roofing sheets.... I'm going to receive $1.98 for every recall taken care of within a 10 mile radius of the Chinese factory just north of Fukashema nuclear plant.. Next time I'm buying a OIIIIO ...............LOL

I laughed when you said it should hold for a year lol I just used foil tape on my lower radiator pipe because I got a hole in my manifold aiming hot air right At it. I might try this for my flange leak tho so thanks for the content

[@terryhites1]

As I seen the electric tape , coat hanger, and foil tape come out I was thinking it was going to be a parody video.... Nope, it was for real.... If you welded the last one and it held, why not weld this one??? Please do a follow up video of how long this lasted

That's what's up! I personally think a little duct tape was called for. But what do I know

[@flakybooger2464]

use fiberglass weld after you adjusted the broken pipe - $20 and not the black electrical tape the coat hanger idea was great, you cud wrap the hangers on top of the fiberglass

You Got it !!!! I was trying to be politicallly correct...

[@Redneckmfg]

LOL I only wish I could patent this Quick Fix...But, believe it or not the Electrical tape did melt off on the first drive But the foil tape lasted I think 3 months until I could pick up a new Exhaust system from Banks... And the foil tape kept the noise level down until the new system was installed..... LOL Thanks for watching and for the comment

[@johnbrown4937]

Even the stainless steal exhausts rust oxidize and Rott…

[@greenspiraldragon]

Haha I could have told you electrical tape will melt. They make a muffler repair tape that will sometimes work. The heat duct tape won't melt but is too thin. If you can get a coupling and some clamps on there is better still. I have used metal flashing and hose clamps.

[@jish4668]

Great but I would have tried to tack weld it first. But I also know it's almost impossible to weld underneath the truck. Been there done that.

[@AbandonedMaryland]

I thought about using the same technique just didn't think the tape would hold up

[@Redneckmfg]

Don't use low temperature electrical tape.. use only high temperature electrical tape and you should be good to go ??? LOL thanks for watching

[@fordinlinestraight]

I never like to leave bad comments . I get it tho it's a cheap fix . Easy cheaper fix dollar store foil wrap a whole box and hose clamps. Plus stabilizer. But best to weld. But again I get it . People stuck don't have a welder. Cheers nice garage

Thank you! I needed a quick fix and this did it!

[@MathWithMisterA]

Just coming back to say that the fix was still holding up 6 weeks and 500+ miles (mostly highway) later when I was finally able to get a new vehicle. Although it was starting to get really loud and having trouble on hills... But your method came through big time for me. Thanks again.

[@jcubray8718]

Some truck just threw a hubcap under my car and it broke my exhaust and busted a hole in my transmission pan. I HAVE to keep using this vehicle for now though. My question is How long should this last?

[@Redneckmfg]

The exhaust will last forever or until it falls off and gets run over by the car or truck behind you... as far as the Transmission -- that is a loaded question.... how big is the hole? is the hole above the fluid level or below the fluid level?How many Miles do you drive per trip? how many miles do you drive Biannually? can you tape the hole shut? (that will keep unwanted dirt and animals from getting inside the transmission)…. I must have all of these answers and more to accurately calculate just how long it should last !!! Thanks for watching and for this comment !!!

[@jcubray8718]

The Puncture in the transmission pan is about the size of my thumb. I posted A short videos showing the damage on my page. Would I be able to use JB Weld or some type of muffler cement to patch it up? And then the muffler is dented and broken by the exhaust. If I were to patch this up would I have to worry about backfiring or overheating since the muffler is dented? Please take a look and give me some advice I really need this car, I just got out, I’m on Parole, and I was supposed to start work this week.

[@Redneckmfg]

Hmmm ! that is some major damage... you might need to consult with a professional repair guy on that one.... and you say a Hub Cap did all that ??? WOW that is crazy … great video that you posted by the way...

[@jcubray8718]

Yeah that’s what I was thinking too 🤦🏻‍♂️. I went ahead and put some JB Weld on the transmission case yesterday so I’m hoping that’ll hold and if it does I’ll take it to a muffler shop later today. I’ll post a video later to let you know how it came out🤞 . I never really posted videos before though, you know? And well it was this litte piece of metal that was about the size of a hubcap I’m not sure exactly what it was. But thanks for the ideas and video.

Isn't there a type of silcone tape you can use now ? I just was reading up on this stuff & I'm in awe ! It fuses to itself and has a doesn't melt ? I believe it can take up to 500°F. (Not sure how hot your truck gets, but I hope it isn't over 500° F. lol) Nice video.

[@DLee1923]

Redneck Mfg. Right. And from the articles and videos on this tape, there are now many more and even clear rolls, and they're decently sized also, now. And this stuff has ZERO adhesive materials to it ! Amazing ! I was in a bittersweet moment while in awe at the same time. Bittersweet because I felt like I was seeing the end of my need for the old faithful Duct tape ! sniff lol Thanks again.
