with our bender no we cannot just make like a "copy"...although i
wish....to make just a Y pipe on a 2 wheel drive i would think $100 to
$150 depending on location, 4 wheel drive blah blah blah....the only
thing is that although there are no ridges ir crimps like stock exhaust
tubing when you bend it it does make small crimps but is much
smoother...kinda hard to describe unless you see it....maybe i can just
E-mail you a pipe....i think i would call it file Y.PIP
