Title: Muffler routing with front PTO
Post by: ZekeD on September 29, 2013, 09:49:50 PM

I have seen pictures of an alternate route for the exhaust and muffler when you have a front PTO.   Mine runs under the trans suport bracket, and goes all the way back.  The alternate crosses behind ? The bell housing and exits in front of the passenger's rear wheel.    Do you know if anyone sells a premade setup for this?

I was trying to keep the muffler protected by the frams and not hang down.    The military answer is like the picture.   I was hoping someone made a ready to install unit.

Looks like Pete Debella may have what you're looking for.� I would call to confirm that this unit would not ubstruct the PTO shaft.
