tommyg 154 #1 Posted November 15, 2022 Anyone know of a suitable aftermarket muffler for the D-series? I've seen suggestions of a Stanley that would fit, but they don't make that one any longer either. I've searched high and low. I want to keep the original look as much as possible. Thought of cutting one down to size and rewelding, but that's kind of where I'm at. I'd rather not, but if that's my only option, I'd give it a try. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FWIW, here is one of my D's with the twin Cub Cadet mufflers in a 'stack' setup. Along with me, many of the owners of these old tractors go to an alternate setup and this muffler is popular - its relatively inexpensive - or was before this latest price gouging - and very adaptable. The original D mufflers are virtually non existent (NLA!) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to keep the stock look as much as I can and these accomplish that. What would you charge to put together a pair for me? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Not that I'm in any hurry, just wondering). And does the 150 include shipping or would that be additional? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And does the 150 include shipping or would that be additional? $150 for both mufflers and that includes the shipping to the lower 48 states , turn around time is 2 or 3 days , but since right now i have 3 ft of snow to deal with it might take an extra day 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
