I'm trying to locate a new muffler for my Bobcat 530. I've searched everywhere including the official Bobcat parts site, Google, Amazon, Ebay and Allskidsteers.com with no success. One end of the muffler is blown our and the other end is starting to go. Do anyone out there know of a source for a new muffler?

With the exception of the ends, the muffler looks to be in decent shape. If I can't track a new one down, I'm going to cut off and weld on new end plates.

I have a older onan engine on a lincon welder and I could not find a replacement muffler . So what i did was use two 13 hp honda mufflers I had laying around . But the heads are threaded for 1 inch pipe,so it made it easy to do.

Great idea. I'm going to try to fix up my muffler to see how it works out. If I'm not happy with the results, I may try something like your setup. Thanks.

I took some time today and fixed my muffler. I welded new end plates on and shot it with a fresh coat of high heat paint.

Here's a video of the repair start to finish: Bobcat 530 muffler fix
