You guys are great!!! My truck for those that don't remember is a 94.5 f350 crew cab 4x4. We drive it at least a couple times a month between lubbock and corpus and regularly haul our slide in camper or horse trailer all over the place too. We got a sailboat to have fun with and live on in corpus about a year ago and it has been fun!!! The truck has been great this year after I rebuilt the trans last winter. A few months ago I also took the body completely off and painted the entire underside and chassis with gloss black rustoleum. I didn't want the beach weather getting a hold of it. I didn't notice the uppipes leaking then but I sure wish I had replaced them with the cab off!!!! OMG that was easy access. Its gonna be a pain in the butt now I know. We just started smelling exhaust in the cab about a month ago. I think its coming in the cowl vent because I know the rest of the cab is sealed tight. So tight that I have to crack a wing window to close the doors. I guess on our trip this week to corpus I have to leave the wings open a bit so we dont get gassed. I have to wait till december to have the cash to do this. Thanks everyone!!!

I bit the bullet and got the international bellowed pipes. The worst part was gettin the old ones out. I Got my old ones in the garage if somebody want to mod them up without having here truck down in the process. Not sure if that would work but just a thought. While u have the thing apart check your fuel pump for any signs of leaking. Also remember to get new o rings for the turbo pedestal too.

We also modify these uppies with a bellow and our own fitting to replace the factory slip joint. I can't post prices, but pm me or shoot me an email if interested.
Not as cheap as building yoruself, but no where near what IH wants, either.
And for the record I have no idea why the SD pipes, with more parts cost 1/2 of what the OBS pipes cost.
