Bosal Rusting??

[smithers_0990]

Do any of you that have Bosal have problems with it rusting?

I am worried that if I buy it that it wont hold up to our winters.
I remember a few people that had problems with it.

Let me know what you think of it.

Thanks

Do a search on that, I think I remember someone complaining about their exhaust rusting a while back.

NO, the exhaust system itself will NOT RUST...its made of polished stainless steel. however....the bolts of the system could...and the small allen head capscrews that hold on the tip are not stainless and they can/will.....but that is an easy fix.....just take the tip off....take one of the capscrews to your local hardware store and buy replacements that are stainless steel...problem solved.

It's not the allen screws it is the gasket between the tip and the muffler

I've seen multiple Bosals fall off at the muffler. Not a good thing at all.
