Making/adapting exhaust system to fit?

[Fab5Freddy]

Have you tried the online electronic parts guides? https://www.epcatalogs.com/light/daihatsu
This is just one, there are others.

Ouch, bit pricey! but thanks for link and alerting me to the existence of these kind of things

I sometimes find parts numbers by looking up parts on eBay.

Amy independent tyre and exhaust place should be able to sort you out. Just go in, ask for the exhaust to be repaired and let them worry about it. Don't start telling them that you're having trouble getting it sorted as that will just Jack up the price!

What sort of Daihatsu? There are loads of exhausts on ebay.

Atrai 7, Japanese import - in the UK there was a very similar model called an Extol

Wow, many thanks! I dont know why my searching on there wasn't showing it?
Looking at that price, I am planning just to go to local independent exhaust centre and say what Mottie said above first. It could just be cheaper that way.
Then I'll have to go for the ebay one.
Thanks everyone

How did old salt know the exact part you needed for your exact car? Have I missed something?

 

[Stivino]

According to Wikidata it is also known as a Toyota Sparky, Daihatsu Hijet Grancargo and Daihatsu Extol.

I would like to say its engineer’s intuition but really in Post #20, I asked what car it was for.

UPDATE - I took this in to a local garage and they fixed it. They brazed a sleeve on. Thanks for all the help on this forum. (I also have the whole exhaust system saved on my ebay list, just in case for next time)

I dont know anything about brazing. How hot would your flame/metal have to be to do this and what solder/brazing material would you use? (and what flux?). I might have a go myself if I need to patch an exhaust in future

You’ll only succeed with brazing if you have oxy acetylene gear, Freddy.....nothing else gets hot enough but MIG welding is good too.
If you can get the gear, use brass brazing spelter and Sifbronze flux that’s pink in colour. The metal needs to be orange hot!
