cherry bomb back box

Post by AshR1 » Tue May 20, 2014 5:12 pm

going to be fitting a cherry bomb back box to my samurai soon, anyone have any images of theirs on how they did it that i can use as a guide image to see how it fits at all? and has anyone ran into any problems or niggles when fitting one??

Thanks

I merely fitted a cherry bomb because it was the smallest silencer I could find and aided ground clearance, honestly.

My neighbours are ok, so I drive quite gently out the street.

Last thing I need is complaints and being reported for being a nuisance.

I have used a standard from silencer then found as many sections of pipe as i had and welded them all together to make my cherry bomb fit.
