With much grunting, the jeep’s tailpipe is finally repaired. I had to use my rotary tool to buff down the excess rust from the old clamp before I could force the new section of pipe onto the muffler side of the join. I also had the entire thing together and let the jeep down only to find it was rubbing the tire and required a rotation of the pipe to get it to hang straight.
But the important news is that the jeep is back on the ground and the repair cost $15 in parts and $15 in new tools (the reciprocating saw blades I bought).
I have AdBlockPlus *disabled* for this page, and as of today I see *no* ads on the screen. You might want to get onto that …
They appear to be working now…
I need to come down and get my CV boot done sometime soon — also need to look at said joint — it’s clicking a bit. This Fri perhaps?
I can work with that. I think clicking is bad.

Maybe you need to make a new posting about Jeep-ness …
