exhaust leak

I recently noticed I have an exhaust leak at my up pipes at the y connection. I have heard of the bellows type of pipes, where do I get them?

He is referencing the Garrett GTP38R Turbo he purchased at the same time he did the International Up-pipes.

Terry, you might want to call Ron Dupratt and ask them if they have the "y" pipe in stock, mine broke while doing mine a while back. I think it cost like $50-$60 IIRC. You could always order one through Ed though if you don't need your truck in the time it takes for him to ship something.
