What about some longer bolts and steel tubing cut the length (internal diameter of tubing to be same as diameter of bolt)

cheers

yeah could do that. I was thinking about 100mm exhaust pipe cut 25mm and 2 exhaust flanges top and bottom.Then weld them together.

I'm pretty sure Sam just cut the tower and just welded tube in where the cut was made. Wouldn't that be easier than making flanges etc.
