New 4x4 product: Redback exhaust kit for the 79 Series

It shouldn’t be surprising that Redback Exhausts has engineered a twin exhaust system that will improve the sound, efficiency and aesthetics of your 79 Series LandCruiser.

Redback Exhausts have been in the exhaust business for 30 years and its systems are proudly Australian made.

Redback utilises electrical mandrel benders in the production of its exhausts. While this is considerably more expensive than hydraulic benders, the outputs are more accurate and consistent. This is exactly what you want when it comes to upgrading the exhaust system on your 4WD.

The Redback Extreme Duty twin four-inch exhaust kit for the 79 Series dual-cab ute has been engineered to maximise its usability with a slot on top of the tip’s brackets that allows installers to adjust the tips to wherever you want them.

You won’t need to relocate any shock absorber remote reservoirs, either. Redback has even ensured the dual exhaust won’t snag on your long-range fuel tank, specifically the ARB Long Range fuel tank.

This kit is designed to suit dual-cab DPF models only - if you have airbags installed, you're out of luck and you’ll need to install the single four-inch kit.

The four-inch exhaust system is a twin DPF back exhaust with 409 stainless-steel tubes coated with premium heat-proof paint. The flange plates are 10mm thick and use four bolts to connect, and the fire ring gaskets are pressed.

There is a removable plug boss for the EGT, and the hanger brackets are extreme duty. When it comes to sound, the only option is a twin straight-through pipe; however, more sound options are expected shortly.

Redback offers to double the extended warranty from five to 10 years if you purchase the kit from Redback online or from an authorised Redback 4x4 dealer, or if you register your purchase using the online warranty registration form.

Expect to pay from $2099 for this exhaust kit, and add a bit more for shipping and installation.
