Is there a V2 JP or are they all the same?


I am wondering if I can fusion weld the pipe or will that heat it too much and make it weaker? , or if I am better off sending it back to dino?

i noticed there is no rubber gromet on the mount for chassis flex? this is getting crazy with those jet-pro's bust'in up.my opinion is once its been cut or cracked and re-"RE"-welded, it will never be the same again. you'll always be listing for that high pitch "well it broke again" sound. for the price of a J.P. i would send it back to them. new pipe, new sticker.. done. even if i had a welder, i would still want a new pipe.

JP V2 has 2 mounting tabs...the vibration on these trucks is causing them to crack.....I just sent 2 pipes in for repair, Dino is aware of the problem and V2 is holding up better. He is awsome to deal with, and really does stand behind his work/pipes...

Very nice repair moo.


I think I am going to run my MCD Samba on it. I am going to send it back to Dino, and see what he figures. I'd rather do that than keep fixing it, i know it will break again in another spot. :mad:

I talked to Dino today, no problem to send it back for repair, I pay shipping. We'll see what he does.
