So I want to change up my exhaust set up. Right now it's LT headers to a catless y-pipe into a 3" single in/out aerochamber and run out the side in front of the rear passenger side tire. I want to keep the side exit setup, but would like to go to a 3" dual exhaust all the way through two 3" in/out aerochambers with a H-pipe before the mufflers and then out the side.

Problem is, finding a shop to work on a truck that has no cats. So my question is, are there any mandrel bent universal kits out there? Save from buying each pipe individually.

Has anyone done their own exhaust system this way? Sorry for the lengthy story, but thanks for looking.

Yeah I got the welding down.

I think I'll just go piece by piece and take my time with it. Then get everything powder coated.

I bought a similar kit from jeggs.

3 inch duals on a stockish 4.8 is not a good idea.

Nice kit. I am thinking of going the same route, but just from the muffler back. Talked to Ripleys muffler shop in Houston and they said to do a mandrel pipe from the muffler, over the axle and out back would probably be around $500 because their mandrel bender is only for stainless pipes. That's almost what a nice catback costs, no thanks.

magnaflow makes awesome mandrel bends out of 409 stainless (will corrode but not rot) they are cheap too. around 20 a bend for 3". i used these on my truck and sectioning a U bend netted a nearly perfect round cross section so it is a very nice splice

If that were staying in the truck then yes, but a 370 is going in its place.
