Looking for MUFFLER SUPPORT BRACKET for a '40B, SN 87429. The upper radiator tank is casting number B1513R but looks different from that called for in the parts book for SN 60000-B200999. The bracket I currently have is just the bracket, has a round muffler base, bolts on the back of the tank and is NOT combined with inlet pipe. The inlet pipe is a threaded, separate pipe from the muffler bracket. Would appreciate any info on availability for this part.
Thanks,
Bob

Bob,

Casting B1513R is correct for your tractor. I have B SN 81291 with the same tank.

You can't always trust the pictures in the parts books. The picture of the radiator tank show is for after 96,000. Likewise, the picture of the muffler you need doesn't match the picture in the parts book.

Here is the one you need on ebay: >Link

As>Link others have mentioned the cast mounting base is factory welded to the muffler. Detwiler's also sell the correct aftermarket muffler.

Hope this helps.

Jason

Jason;
That cleared up the whole confusing mess. I just now found a couple of sources for after-market mufflers - what I was looking for. Thanks for the info.
Bob

Hello Someone didnot weld the muffler to ,That bracket you keep referring to was originally part of the muffler, And when you find the CORRECT muffler it WILL have that bracket attached to it from the factory.

Thank you for explaining that to me. I found an after-market muffler as you described.

Thanks for the feedback from all. My situation is such that the tank casting number B1513R is not at all like the parts book describes - the book shows a slanted rectangular opening on the tank that receives a pipe inlet/muffler combination support. The muffler bracket I have is a three bolt pattern and someone has welded the muffler to it. The tank is in good working order so would rather not replace it and the threaded inlet pipe on the right side. I need to replace the muffler and would like to find just the bracket but can't locate a picture or a part casting number. Thanks,
Bob

The 39 and 40 B's were kinda like the unstyled in that the muffler included the bracket that bolts it to the rad. tank. And your rad. water inlet and outlet may also just use threaded pipe.

What you are describing appears to be an after-market cobble job. You seem to have at least two choices, (1) Assuming you have a broken muffler bracket -- to have it mended, or (2) acquire the B1805R Radiator Water Inlet Pipe & Support bracket. The latter would indeed work for you in that you have a B1513R upper radiator tank. I hope this helps some.

Sources for such a part include Detwiler's (715) 659-4252, Shephard's (715) 265-4988, and/or Marlin Smith (712) 489-2570. (PatB)
