anyone know the size and bolt spacing for the dpf pipe, am building my own and dont want to take appart twice. any info would be great, being lazy i guess

 

Use a thin piece of cardboard with a 4" hole, slit it slip it over pipe and trace out ? Thats how I was going to do mine...Just havent yet.

 

I have several flanges that were cut on a lazer. I made my delete pipe with one of them. I just used a new gasket to pattern the flange. Used 3/8ths bolts. Got the 4" pipe a Napa. New gasket was 15 bucks at the dealer. The old one was kinda stuck to the pipe so I left it there for later use if needed.
Good luck, I also picked up 4mpg after deletes. No regen

 

I'm laid off and bored right now, trucks in body shop, thanx but i'll just take it apart when it's back

 

heres a novel idea

go buy a gasket and there ya go. you will need one anyways if you are building a bolt on delete pipe. save ya a lot of trouble and you can start making the flange while waiting for the truck to get out of the bodyshop.

 

hell of an idea, guess I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. thanx

 

Navy, Did you use a straight pipe or did you have to bend it to get it to fit up right? How about hangars ? looks like there are a couple hangars now, but with all that weight gone are hangars still needed on the replacement pipe? Thinking about making my own as well as you can see. I see you are in AZ as well I'm about 12 South of Wickenburg how about you?

 

Chris, you always take the easy way out - when I get as old as you I'm gonna "work smarter not harder" too!

 

Sorry I took so long to respond, been out of town. I used straight pipe and no hangers, the pipe is lite. I have a delete pipe here in my garage if you want to buy it $100. plus shipping. I'm located in Vail AZ just south of Tucson.

 

Thanks for the reply. Decided to order one. Installed and working....
