Underslung exhaust and adding aux hydraulic block

[J3 Driver]

Looking at our 57 cub the exhaust runs very close to the the hydraulic block on the touch control unit. It is possible to move it out some so that an Aux hydraulic block can be fitted.

J3 Driver,
I ended up cutting the exhaust pipe to change a couple of angles and rewelding it. You could take it to an exhaust shop and have them bend it, if they have a die that small. One of the other challenges was the 90 degree elbow on my exhaust manifold, it was angled a bit too far from being parallel to the side of the tractor, but I decided I didn't want to try to move it.

I have one with an underslung exhaust and a bypass block. I didn't install it. I think that there is enough "wiggle room" to do it. Loosen the exhaust at the manifold, and muffler, and shift it a little. May have to remove the exhaust pipe, to install the bypass block, though.

Would the exhaust offset for the IH 1000 loader solve your problem? http://www.tmtractor.com/tm-tractor/gim/a1245s.jpg

Bet that would do it. I was thinking last night there had to be a kit for this. With the loader and other things that were offered. Now to find one. Or make one.

Yes, that was it's purpose. TM used to have them made and sold them.

If it is not on the website call Ron at TM.

He has a lot of parts like this that are not on the website.
