My brain is mush

I know that this queston has been answered recently and I made a note of it but can't find it. (Getting old is not for sissys)

Question:
What is the brand name of the prefered, round down tube and where does one purchase it?

Thanks in advance,
Roger

I think it is tymar. not sure wher to get it. Actually the preferred way is to mod your own and get a 4" or dual 3" ers. LOL

right but the stock downpipe isnt anywhere close to that, the 3 is all that fits without major work, a 3.5 or 4 fits but major firewall modding is required, even most 3 inchers require the firewall lip to be rolled out of the way for install

the stock DP is a mushed 3" pipe. I would say go with a Tymar DP as well. I have a custom 3.5" dp. A 4" DP would recquire some serious firewall smashing to clear it, not to mention it probably rattles on the tranny when in reverse, lol cause I know mine does. There's not much room for big DP in these trucks which is why Ford engineers decided to go with the crunched 3" DP rather then a true 3" pipe. Good luck

i rode in one over the weekend with a 4 inch sd downpipe and it didnt rattle at all, he made a tunnel for it to run down rather then bang the firewall in but you cant tell from inside the truck, under the hood it is cramped though, i thought the 3 inch was tight!
