Which back box for my diesel 75?

Ravinder · 12th June 2020, 13:15

Hi guys. My back box on my typhoon is very crusty and has a hole in it and needs replacing. Which back box do I get? As I believe the originals aren’t available...
Thanks

I would recommend Walkers, I managed to buy one last year via Walkers direct they had no stock anywhere in Europe but took the trouble to source me one from one of their motor factor customers.(they only sell via trade) Their part number is 22343 they may well now have produced more stock.
I had it fitted earlier this year and am very pleased, they offer a 3 year guarantee and most useful is the fact that the hanging brackets are on a strap like the original.
Worth a phone call, Tenneco-Walkers Customer service 0121 609 3047/3000

They should be able to tell you if there is any stock in the system and then give you the name of a local motor factor who stocks their product.
What they did for me was maybe a one off, having found no stock anywhere on their distribution system in Europe system they rang round a number of their stockists, found one picked it up via their returns system and then delivered it to a local factor who I bought it from all in less than a week. As I say this might have been a one off but its worth asking firstly if they have any stock anywhere. I suggested that if they produced more there could be a demand for a good quality product but there didn't seem a link between customer services and production planning! It would be interesting to know if they did produce more stock. Good luck.

Possible still unavailable then although it would be a slow seller for them at that price! I paid less than half of that.

Yeah, not cheap....

I've just looked up the Walker catalogue and it states 'Status: Article to be discontinued' so you might be out of luck, still might be worth a phone call to them though.

Not that it helps, but when I was sourcing a second-hand intercooler in a Malaga scrapyard last October, the MG I found it on had an astoundingly good complete exhaust...I was almost tempted to buy it there and then, but knew I would be driving back home with a full load in my Tourer.

So if you're driving on the Costa del Sol...
