Using an exhaust pipe end spreader 

You know it helps to oil the threads, the tapers and the inside of the pipe. Oil just makes the whole operation work smoother.

I ended up on this video accidentally from the autoplay, I wasn't seeking out info on expanders but I watched the video anyway just cuz you're entertaining to watch! the banjo music gave me a chuckle too, love it

always grease the bolt threads with high pressure grease before using to save the threads.

I used one like this that was a loaner from a store. Two tips from my experience, you definitely want to use a well mounted vice (or two) or something, standing on it probably won't do, lol. Also, set your workpiece in a warm place for a bit, before you start, if it's cold. Good luck out there!

If you heat the end to be expanded with a torch, it will go easier for you..........

I bought one of those years ago from Harbor Freight and it was a disaster. The threads stripped out before it even expanded the pipe. I even lubed the threads with Moly grease. Good to see the Sears model worked good.

It did the job ok , i wonder if there is a better way , i`m thinking like some sort of expander fitting to work with a porta power for home use ??? i have seen the fancy hydraulic ones in exhaust shops that work in seconds with zero effort , very nice , but probably out of reach for most of us average joes .

Is it just me or did he do the wrong side. I thought he needed the flare to go over the red muffler he had?

Is that pipe steel or aluminium? i guess thicker stainless steel might be out of its league, but i was wondering if it worked on 1.8mm steel.

... Do you think it would work with the likes of titanium tube, with a seam (not split it)?.

Autozone and O'Reilly's (and probably other auto parts stores) will loan these tools out to you.

I gotta raptor 660 and I’m trying to make a fz09 yoshimura exhaust fit on it u think I could do this and it would work well and not fall of while riding? Or do u suggestion to cut the exhaust and tig weld it back?

I didn't know there were any left but yesterday I saw a Sears hardware in a small town in Northwest Indiana.

On closer look....you are trying to expand the pipe to fit an expanded side of the other pipe....You went too far.

That thang works well

Can you give the sales address
