Bobcat Clark 632 exhaust

[lbruno]

Hello,
New to the forum, new to skid steer ownership, bought an older model 632 (1977-1982) so I read. 1.6 Ford motor. Definitely hard to find some parts.
Currently looking for a door …. It has hindges on the left A post of cab if you’re sitting in the seat. Also looking for a new exhaust/tailpipe.

Any insight/recommendations greatly appreciated

I have the 642 with the Ford engine and four years ago tried to find an OEM exhaust unsuccessfully. Mufflers are readily available, but the pipe from the manifold to the muffler is unobtainium. I even tried to source a used one just to use as a pattern.

Since I have a half dozen tractors, I cut off what was salvageable from the bobcat, the manifold riser pipe, and ran a straight pipe up to a tractor muffler, which works perfectly - see photo. Only thing, you need to remember to remove it before raising the cab.

I hope this helps...

Very much appreciated, do you know the muffler part #?

It's just a standard tractor muffler. Any tractor supply store will have one in stock. I'm in illinois, so Tractor Supply, Fleet Farm (or Farm and Fleet) will have them. Just measure up the pipe off the exhaust manifold and get that size. If you need a longer up pipe, any good auto parts store has them...

Oh, and don't forget a rain cap for the top of the muffler.

Here's a link to tractor supply for your reference:
