exaust question
I have a 95 F-350 5.8 a40d trans. The Y pipe needs to be replaced. No parts stores have a listing for a 95. They do list one for 88-93 and Ford no longer sells this part. Has anybody run into this problem and if so what did you use.

I few minor corrections:
Your truck has an E4OD transmission, there is no A4OD.
Your truck has an H-pipe. not a y-pipe like the F150/Bronco.
I have no idea why there is no H-pipe listed for a F250/350 beyond 1993. There were no major changes in the frame, engine, etc. until the end of the OBS style truck in 1997. I am not aware the 5.8L equipped trucks used OBD-II powertrain control in Cali. like the 7.5L trucks did (1996-97) so it's probably safe to say the H-pipe for the 88-93 trucks should work on your 1995 model year truck.
Walker makes a replacement under Part# 40585 which would be a plug-n-play replacement since it has the flange to support the oval converter inlet.

I ran into this same dilemma when I needed to replace the entire exhaust from the manifolds back on my old 1992 F350 w/5.8L engine. I used a Bassani y-pipe designed for a F150 and a universal 3" ceramic hi-flow converter. The Bassani pipe was pricey, but it fit like a glove since the a F350 is exactly the same as a F150 from a cab and chassis dimension viewpoint. I finished it off with a 3" Magnaflow muffler and a Walker 3" tailpipe designed for a Chevy truck. The only mod I had to do was bend the built-in hanger on the tailpipe about 1/2" to line up with the hanger bracket on the truck.

I called Walker about that part #40585. They said it wouldn't fit but they couldn't tell me why. I agree with you it should work. I went this afternoon and ordered it with the agreement that I could return it if it doesn't fit. thanks. Would rather stay with the stock part if possible,
