down pipe problem
« on: August 29, 2017, 06:44:24 pm »
I've just recieved a 3"down pipe from fast bits on eBay but can't get the v clamp to fit over the joining flanges, been trying for an hour but will not fit.
Any ideas? It's as though the flanges are thicker than the v in the clamp

It'll need a thicker clamp pal, if it's like mine it'll need work getting the two prongs to line up too.

What made it worse is I can't send them a message on eBay.
I wouldn't know what clamp I would need instead?
Anyway I hit the "return item" button....f*ckin chancers selling stuff that doesn't fit

I wouldn't have a clue boss, my mechanic found one in his workshop to use on mine. I left them negative feedback if you look.

Yeah I've seen it  :happy2:

Can anyone recommend a downpipe for under £200 that fits?
