12 valve 4" downpipe

Where can i buy a down pipe for my truck? 4x4 4" downpipe. Im gonna run 4" now and Im gonna rerout where it drops down. I am gonna fab it out between the inner fender, and frame. I should have no tire clearance issues. The reason for this it Im gonna run hidden weed burners for exhaust. If I run it this way, I miss all the little tweeks, and bends needed for a fitment. Then behind the cab, Ill cross over where the t/case guard used to be, and over to the drivers side. I have a set of 6" chrome turn outs from a pete, and all you will see it the tips of the turn downs. I just would rather buy the down pipe, and make my mods to it.

why go through all that effort when Diamond Eye sells a complete kit for $275 shipped, or you can contact dealers and get just the Downpipe and Transfer case pipe. From there, just some flexible and then up through the bed for the stack. Sourceautomotive.biz and Stans Headers sells 1st gen exhaust too, but they are about twice as much when the $100+ shipping is included.

Kasey, I think like dzl_damon said Diamond Eye are the cheapest around. Not sure what their website address is, just do a google search.

If your a fab guy, don't bother buy a DP. It'll be the easiest piece to make!

However, I couldn't buy all the bends and pieces needed to make a system as cheap as the DE mandrel bent system. I was impressed how thick of gauge the steel was too.

Just google it and there are several dealers.

The dp is very easy to fab up just get a couple 4" 90 degree bends and a short piece of 4" straight and weld it together. I did mine and I bought the shortest 4" 90's that I could get and they worked great. I also bought a 3" to 4" adapter and cut that down as short as I could and welded the flange from the stock dp to it.

ASA Modifieds

If you're still looking to buy a 4" DP with a 3" flange then look up ASA Modifieds. They make what you're looking for.
