MF65 vertical exhaust

jknox · Jan 21, 2022

I have a MF65 with a Perkins diesel that gets used for snowblowing at this time of year. It currently has a horizontal exhaust and I find that with the blower in the back, driving in reverse leaves me in a cloud of exhaust. I am wondering if a vertical stack might fix this - but cannot determine if it would fit around the arm of my Dearborn loader. Is anyone aware of this arrangement being possible?
thanks

Dad's 65 Dieselmatic years ago had the upright muffler, it used a close 180 degree exhaust loop that placed the muffler close to the hood. Tractor had a loader too.

Maybe put a 90 degree elbow on the end of the pipe and send it to the side of the tractor.

A vertical muffler was an option for the MF65(shows it in the back of the parts manual). Our 65 has one, but it doesn't have a loader, so I'm not sure about clearance. It doesn't stick out too awful far from the side of the tractor tho. You can prob have a muffler
shop make any kind of pipe/flange that you need.
