UR-Q help Need center muffler

[RDG51@aol.com]

Once again foiled! Having the tie rod replaced last week somehow has caused
the exhaust pipe at the rear end of the middle muffler section to release
from the weld point. The rest of the muffler and the long front pipe section
look really good, which is suprising. A local supplier has the part for
$238--this seems in the ballpark, but I would love to know if there is a
cheaper source, or if the muffler can be rewelded to the pipe, (fabricating a
new end piece and sleeve it to the tailpipe section) as the rest of it looks
OK. Of course this has to be done by Fri, as I'm driving the car this weekend
 to  Anyone with ideas about this I would very much appreciate hearing  from.
Again, thanks in advance for your responses. RDG51@AOL.COM
