How to Fit JK's VW T25 Stainless Steel Full Exhaust Kit

We're really proud of our Just Kampers exclusive complete stainless steel exhaust kit for the VW T25. It's excellent quality, really well made, and so good that we added it to our Preservation Parts range, which only includes the very best products available on the market for your classic VW. 

It was great to see that the guys at Rat 'n' Retro also love the kit, enough that Sam from The VW Engine Company created a video reviewing and fitting the exhaust system to Lizzy, his 1988 VW T25.

They made the video a couple of years ago, before we made the decision to stop including little bags of Haribo in our orders to cut down on the amount of plastic we're using at JK HQ, but the rest of the information is totally accurate!

About the JK-exclusive VW T25 stainless steel full exhaust kit
We're confident that you'll get a huge amount of value for your money with this exhaust kit, which is why it's in our Preservation Parts range. It's a beautifully made, direct swap for the rusted, tired or damaged exhaust on your VW T25 (or T3, if you prefer), and the awesome video from Rat 'n' Retro really highlights that. 

The kit gets you the silencer, pipes, pre-heat sections, straps, gaskets, bolts and other fittings you'll need to install your brand new silencer kit. The main components have been made from SAE 304 stainless steel, which gives it better resistance to both corrosion and heat. 

Designed to fit the VW T25 from 1985 to 1992 with either a 1900cc or 2100cc engine, but won't fit on Synchros or Transporters with a catalytic converter. If you're looking to fit it to pre-1985 water-cooled vehicles you absolutely can, and you'll just need to purchase a pair of brackets (J19650 and J19651) and the additional mounting kit (J42396). 

Sold with a 5-year, non-transferable warranty covering faulty workmanship or rust - that's potentially a lot of miles covered!

About Preservation Parts:
As we mentioned earlier, this stainless steel exhaust kit is part of our Preservation Parts range, which includes only the best parts and accessories for classic VWs. 

We've hand picked every item which makes it into the Preservation Parts range, testing them ourselves on our own vehicles, either in our own garages or the workshop on-site here at JK HQ. The simplist test is: would we be happy fitting it to our own vehicles? 

A lot of the Preservation Parts range is made up of JK-exclusive panels for the Splitscreen, Bay window and T25, all of which are made on-site here in Odiham, Hampshire, in the unit next to Just Kampers. 

This year we're celebrating 10 Years of Preservation Parts, and continue to work on refining and improving the range to help you make sure you've got the very best bits for your classic Volkswagen. 

Earlier this summer we put together a video to give you some insight into how these UK-made panels are created, which you can see here:
