Best place for exhaust tubing/downpipe?

I've got a 96 f-250 PSD, and I was wondering where the best place to get exhaust tubing to change my truck to a straight pipe would be? Also, where is the best place for a replacement downpipe to replace the smashed stock one? I also wanted to say that I have learned so much from this place, you guys are awesome! Thanks.

I guess my first guess would be at an exhaust shop, see if they have anything big enough, I had trouble getting pipe big enough for my truck. I got a piece at a local welding shop, worked fine.

Exhaust places usually only have 2.5 or 3 inch at most. If you can find a big truck equipment supplier in your area, they should have what you need. If you like shopping on the internet check out www.airflowonline.com .

I've got a 5" system with a 6" tip. Is that overkill? Is driving a crewcab to work without anyone with me overkill? Of course, but this is America, the land of overkill.
Go for it, you'll love the sound.
