After needing a new starter and having fun removing the exhaust to get to it, I also found it hard to get new gaskets for the exhaust flanges. "We only show one listed" And after looking at it it was too small!!!!!

So..... Into the back I went with the parts guy. Found 3 gaskets almost perfect.
Only needed to enlarge the holes on one, the other two worked perfect.

Part numbers are:
*Gasket that bolts to header: EG24328 FP-60729

*Gasket to other exhaust pipe: EG24684 FP-60620

*Gasket to muffler: Fel pro 60679

Hope this can help someone in need!:smilegray

Nice, and its not just the VX, the trooper gaskets are the same, I imagine they all are. I ended up buying some asbestos insulation in a sheet and cutting it to fit. Still leaks on the wife's RS.

Thanks for posting that tip. I'm planning on taking a DynoMax VT & a 5" SuperTrapp to a Mom&Pop muffler shop in the next month. Knowing this may speed things along.

Hard to get - wow!!!!
With all the trouble I have getting parts for the VX, the exhaust gaskets were dead easy.

Walked into general parts shop with samples in hand.
Guy asked what it was off - my response "Isuzu".
He said fine and wandered off - came back with all 3 gaskets in less than a minute.

Easiest VX parts purchase I have ever made.
