Exclamation Need something to connect exhaust pipe together

Ive been looking around but i cant find anything that connects my exhaust pipe together. 4 inch connecting to the same 4 inch pipe. I need to extend the exhaust on my truck, i have the 4 inch exhaust tubing, but now i need something to connect the damn thing.

Stainless band clamps. They sell them at Napa. They are strong enough you can butt two pipes together and the clamp will hold.

Well get yourself a 4" union for exhaust, thats what i did for my exhaust, it makes it to where you can slide a piece of 4" exhaust tubing from both sides of it and put clamps on it and it should work fine. If i didnt have my mine installed on my truck i would take a pic and show you. Makes life alot easier tryin to put exhaust tubing together.

No thats made for like your turbo to downpipe connection.
You want just a standard band clamp, its bout 4 to 5 inches wide clamp that uses two bolts to seal the pipes together.
You should be able to find them at your local napa or maybe exhaust shop.

Oh im sure they do, just type in exhaust clamps and see what comes up.
I went to my local kenworth dealer and picked up all my exhaust clamps that i needed. Maybe you have a peterbilt or western star dealer that has some in stock instead of having to order them online.

Thats the exact kinda clamps im talking bout. Except i only paid bout 5 dollars a piece for mine. So maybe do some shopping around for them to find them alil cheaper.

Did you find that exhaust pipe union that i was talking bout to connect the two sections together?
