username, I see you have an Ab-Lounger 2.

I keep running across all sorts of exercise equipment at the thrift stores here. I just bought a "buns and thighs roller" at a yard sale, for a quarter. Its in excellent condition, almost never used. I have 8 Ab-Lounger 2's now, have paid less than 4 bucks for all of them combined. Seems people here buy stuff, then, quit using them when they find out it takes effort, and they donate them.

I bought a relatively new Total Gym about a year ago, will all accessories, for 5 bucks. The first Total Gym, I still have it, was a freeby. The treadmill I have is a fairly new one, needed 3 buttons replaced, and I got it for 75 cents and a "get that thing outta here" from one of the thrift stores. It's a target rich environment here for this kind of stuff. I want to find a good used Ab-Doer Twist next, might be a problem, I don't think anyone's bought one here...yet.

I set up a few of the Ab-Lounger's when I do the rope lines and canopy at one of our food distribution programs, a few recipients are now exercising while waiting for their commodities. I use one in my front room along with a small table next to it, for watching TV.

Just thought I'd mention the Ab-Lounger. Exercise on!

Aluminum 7'', 10’’ total, snow mobile silencer $69. I kinda like it, sort of has the vintage look, all I need is a hose clamp :eh: . Im not sure how quite it is but I will go ahead and get the other two.

Does the stinger really have to come off :cry: or can it be tuned around it?

It looks to be a larger diameter, so it might work fine. And it's a good idea To cut the top off a couple of nails, cut them short and drill through the front of the silencer and the pipe, underneath where the clamp goes. Stick the nails in the holes and tighten the clamp over them. That way they can't slide off as they usually do.

Thanks, a roofing nail will work great where the head is wide, flat and thin and just about the same color.

7" - 1 2.25" Body SIL14501 $69.00

My stinger is a 1'' O.D.

After rereading the website they say the core inside the silencer is the same od as the stinger. That seems right as the stinger can only go inside the silencer by about an inch then butts up against the core. That also means the stinger is extended by the core length.
