           STEBRO does indeed make these two rods from stainless steel.  Go 
to our website, <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/stebro.htm">STEBRO/Vanagon Stainless Steel Exhaust System</A>, where you will 
find all the details including pics of these two rods.  The rods are sold 
separately from our 1.9 muffler.  The 1.9 muffler comes with the main rod 
which is attached to the muffler via a special bracket.  There are pics of 
the whole deal on the website.  Any questions I'm here waiting !
