This has been happening for a while, I recently changed the muffler and I was able to get it pressed on tight and as soon as I turned over the engine (6v92) it separated slowly.
Obviously it all could use to be redone. Any ideas before a quick trip to this weekend?
Since it all needs to be replaced I was considering some exhaust repair wrap to create a band around the pipes and keep them secure.
Also was considering making a clamp from aluminum sheet left over from the skinning of windows.

If it is a straight section of 5" pipe with 4-5" of width, consider a stainless steel band clamp for 5" pipe. Truck supply stores and truck stops will have them on hand. If it is at the turbo, you might need a V-band clamp.
It's up by the turbo.. I have one of those band clamps I used to attached the new muffler. If they have one in a 6 diameter it might work.
If it is the adapter type with the steel sealing ring that goes into the hot housing change the sealing ring and there should be set screws on the housing to lock it in place unless someone changed the housing
Yeah it has that.. I was kind of worried to loosen it up. Just use a socket extension or something as a handle?
