    Try 4 States in Joplin, MO. Got mine there about a year ago. I forget what it cost though.

    They wanted $500+ shipping from their salvage section. I passed

    290 was with shipping from Indiana.
    I was in a pickle and worried of not finding or getting something by this Friday and having to sit next week as well.
    I thought the flex pipe would fit but no go unfortunately won't bend 90*

    You need a 90* and two 45*'s. With a cut off wheel hack the 90* off existing and piece everything together. A half dozen band clamps and few short pieces of flex you're in business. But it will look like hell. One side of mine was done that way when I bought my truck. I replaced that and eventually almost everything from the turbo back including a broken securement clamp under there that was lots of fun.

    it was the original 03' elbow and original clamps. ask me if wd40 and penetrating oil were able to loosen it all up..
    answer: saw hello to the saw. had to cut it all off.very carefully. Unfortunately I wasn't prepared for this situation, and no longer have that 90* piece(s).
    Should get the new piece in Friday, which means Monday. Which means I'll be rollin Tuesday or Wednesday. Nice little vacation. From there it'll be rollinrollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rollin rawwhide:confused:

    I know! My phone can't catch a break. Apparently I'm not the only one taking off this week. My outbound broker told me he is working for free this week so far. Bad for him, good for the guys getting the loads, so it seems. Have you been inspected?

    Not yet but later on today I have to run a gauntlet St Louis to Knoxville. For whatever reason every time this week I passed a scale my side was closed and the other side open.
