Default Need Exhaust Springs

I bought the MBRP full system and need two more springs for the header section. MBRP dose not provide any. I need to know how long and wide of spring I need to buy.

they don't provide springs? service is getting kind of poor for some products. when i needed some moose make springs, not sure they were the right ones but they seem to hold the pipe together.

Thanks all I know where I can get springs. It just is if a product needs part to hold it together and you due not use stock parts the manufacturer of said parts should supply them, Alba, Big Gun and Graydon all did. I guess MBRP are just a cheap second-rate maker of aftermarket exhausts.

I got just the race slip-on a few months a go I jut got the header section last week. There are spring hangers on each header and one on the mid pipe section to join all three pieces together just no springs. I called the supplier who I bought it from and this is how he got the header section from MBRP with no springs. I will call later.

i guess the moral here is don't rip on a manufacturer or anyone for that matter publicly until you give them a chance to correct what you have a problem with. sounds like mbrp was on top of their service to me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I can read Bill, he's probably just sick of the stupidity that surrounds us everywhere we turn. Seems like a guy can never just order something and have it come right the first time. there are no "stock" springs in the locations he described, sending that pipe without them was probably just a mistake yeah, but I'm pretty sick of mistakes myself. There's always something wrong with just about everything: a-arms that dent shocks, pipes that smash on the swingarm, skid plates that don't fit right, head gaskets that repeatedly blow, where does it end man? Jesus Christ suppliers, just get it right the first time for once. Hell, look at Lilnotts - he had a problem too? What's up?
