Description

If you’re tired of that under-hood muffler getting in the way when you’re working on your tractor, or if it’s time to upgrade to a better setup that keeps exhaust heat away from your engine bay, this conversion kit is exactly what you need. Converting from under-hood to above-hood exhaust not only makes engine access easier but also improves cooling and gives your tractor that classic straight-stack look that’s both practical and purposeful.

What You’re Getting

Complete kit with manifold-to-muffler pipe, muffler, above-hood pipe, clamp, and raincap – everything needed for the conversion
Direct fit for non-turbo 179D and 239D engines – no modifications or adapters required
Heavy-duty construction designed to handle the heat cycles and vibration of field work
2-1/4 inch inlet with proper sizing to maintain exhaust flow and engine performance
Raincap included to keep weather out when the tractor’s parked

Built for Real Farm Work

This kit transforms the exhaust system on your 2150, 2155, 2350, 2355, 2550, or 2555 John Deere tractor. These utility tractors were built for the tough jobs – loader work, cultivation, hay production, and general farm tasks where you need reliable power and easy maintenance access. Moving the exhaust above the hood makes routine service much easier and keeps that hot exhaust away from hydraulic lines and wiring.

Made to Last

Farm exhaust systems take a beating from constant temperature swings, road dust, and the occasional bump from tree branches or equipment. This conversion kit is built with materials that resist corrosion and maintain their integrity through years of agricultural use. The muffler provides effective sound reduction while the raincap protects the system during storage.

Good to Know

This is a straightforward conversion that most folks can handle with basic tools. The kit includes proper clamps and hardware, so you won’t be hunting for parts. Take your time removing the old under-hood setup – those exhaust manifold bolts can be stubborn after years of heat cycles. A little penetrating oil and patience go a long way. Make sure to check manifold bolt torque after the first few hours of operation.
