Question Exhaust system replacement

Where can I find instructions/video for replacing my exhaust system? I don’t need a Catalytic Converter, it was removed years ago by the previous owner. I have a 5.8 94 F250. Any input is welcome as this is my first time replacing an exhaust.

Unbolt (if you can) or cut it off. You will need to get the old intermediate pipe off the end of the catalytic converter. Do not cut the end of the converter. Install new parts.

The pipes are slip fit. Install new clamps. It’s pretty self explanatory.

Thank you! I don't actually have a converter, the previous owner removed it.

It's all about the same you don't have to find one for your exact year and model of truck.

Do you have to block off air injection to manifolds or head? If not, or already done, as previous poster said pretty much follow any video. Relatively easy to do.

I don't know if this would be the same but I have your same truck just a 1997 I only put on performance exhaust manifolds but all you do is unbolt the manifolds from the heads, remove the bolts holding the manifold to the rest of the exhaust pipes (two each side) and then I believe you remve one 02 sensor. Hope this helps!
