i have a very small exhaust leak. the leak is coming from the band clamp on the end and its really small. i got the jegs band clamps that are preformed but the leak is come from where to comes to together when you tighten both bolts. can i use jb weld? i got the glasspack with 2 1/4'' ends so the glasspack is not fitted like the stock exhaust. this is only exhaust leak i have.

you could use jb weld, but why not just permanentaly fix it by taking it to an exhaust shop and have them weld it back correctly - should cost no more than the cost of jb weld and the trip to the auto parts store to fix it correctly?

I don't think JB weld will stand up to the temperature of the exhaust pipe. There are other products designed for repairing exhaust leaks though. Just have a gander through the exhaust aisle at your local auto parts store, or even wal-mart for that matter.
