Does anybody have a link to the a DIY exhaust deflector? I had seen a demo of how to make one somewhere within the last 6 months or so. Thanks.

Re: DIY exhaust deflector
Our Canadian sourced cars have a built in deflector riveted to the rear end of the muffler. The exhaust is deflected downwards but forward progress still results in a dirty rear axle.
My Holden bodied Tarrant special tourer has its fuel tank suspended under the spare wheel carrier at the back, necessitating a vacuum tank on the firewall for fuel delivery. The tank gets particularly filthy. I dropped an extension pipe from the back of the muffler down in front of the axle, with a kink at the bottom to direct the exhaust to the rear. It looks a little strange, but it does the job really well.
