Hello, wondering if anyone knows the stock color of the exhaust elbow tube that connects the heat exchanger to the Heater control box?
I assume they are grey, like the exchangers, but wanted to be sure before coating them. Thanks |

Not sure on the S branches or warm air elbows. Have,seen some with remnants or rust color primer. They may not have been original. |

Thanks Bruce. You are correct the upward J Tubes are black, but wanted to confirm the warm air elbow, which I believe is grey.
Thanks for adding the s-branches. I have only seen black or rust primer, but not sure what is original. Q1. J-tubes [grey or black]? A1. Believed to be BLACK Q2. Warm air elbow [grey or black]? A2. GREY Q3. S-Branches [grey or black or other]? A3. ? |

Thanks Steve. We are looking for shots of the exhaust warm air system, and s-branches that connect the heat exchangers to the shroud. Basically a few good pictures of the back undercarriage.
Thanks |
