Need new muffler DD Series 60

[pgchd]

Have the new service manager call "Earl Davis" in parts at fort
valley. I had my system done last year, Earl will give him the
"correct parts info". The muffler, tip,old "flex pipe", pyrometer, and
clamps are stock items. However, that "U pipe" is custom order 3-4
weeks and custom fabrication. Also the flex pipe was replaced with a
new upgraded "ball and socket" design pipe,better item....... If the
mechanics need install tips have them call "Wendell" who is over in
the bluebird bus side now. He will usually help them by phone. no big
deal for them, they were done in 3-4 hours . I am at the nest now and
just left Earl's office with some parts! :-)
