Custom up pipes

[r_marczak_83]

This may reflect a thread I posted a few weeks ago, but i have an early 99, and have up pipe problems. Is there a kit to "weld" bellows to existing pipes to achieve the same outcome as buying the $900 kit from IH. I cannot afford the kit and am looking for long term alternatives.
I have searched the web for such kits, but have come up empty.

Any input?
