5" tailpipe, axle back?

Does anyone sell just the tailpipe section for our trucks in 5"?

I can get Magnaflow stainless 4" axle back tailpipe from Summit Racing for less than $100, but I like the sound of 5" exhaust better.

I was hoping I could find a 5" tailpipe and run my existing 4" pipe up to there and then hook up to the 5". I want to have my exhaust in the stock location again...

Man, for that short lenth you may just wanna pick your tip to your liking and then go get a length of 5" exhaust stock and have it bent. You may have more trouble than success trying to locate a pre-bent 5" set up for the interval you need.

Problem is no one I can find has a bender that can do 5" or even 3" for that matter.

Maybe I'll just do the stainless 4" tailpipe... it sounds pretty good 4" right now, just exits too close to the cab.

My buddies dad has an exhaust shop. He ordered me a 5" universal bc the specific tp for our body was on backorder for like 2 weeks. Its 2 pieces. Mine comes out similar to how the new dmaxs are.

Hmm, more than I am wanting to spend... I think I'll go with the 4" tailpipe and get a 5 or 6" tip for it.

I think the Tailpipe was around $110. The DP was $100. 4 to 5 adapter was 30.
I also put a 4" coupler ( $20) in b4 the bed just in case i ever wanted to do a stack i could cut 2 welds and put a elbow.
Tail 110
DP 100
4 to 5 30
coupler 20
4" straight 5 ft 30
3" to 4" reduc 20
total $310

So retail i came out decent.

I just don't want to spend $500 or more on a whole 5" system when I can use my 4" stuff for the front half.
