Exhaust kit or....

Im thinking about the exhaust on my 2000 f250 5.4L alot lately. It has many leaks haven't looked into where though. Someone has cut off the tail pipe. Basically the exhaust ends half way under my truck box.
Should I just buy a bunch of stright pipe and take it to a shop and get them to bend and install or???

Go to multiple shops and get estimates on how much a new system would cost. Tell them what you want done/how you want it done. See what they say.

You are not going to save yourself any money by buying your own pipe. Get an estimate from a muffler shop. If you want to be really savvy, get three estimates, then go with the middle bidder.

If you can weld and have knowledge of taking measurements buying your own universal dual exhaust kit is ten times cheaper than having someone do it. A local exhaust ship in my area that does mandrel bend (only shop I know of within thirty miles) charges 400-500 for a cat back exhaust system. I'm about to do my 5.4 powered f350 again with a true dual setup and buying a complete universal kit with two cherry bomb type mufflers only cost me $280. And since I can weld etc it will take me maybe half a Saturday to have it ran under the truck and out exactly how I want it with no " o I couldn't get it to run that way" excuses
