Exhaust flange to manifold

[Brian1973]

The exhaust flange bolting the y pipe up to the manifolds is getting pretty rusty on my '91 3.0... flimsy and causing an exhaust leak. Ideas to fix this issue?

You can buy a universal flange, like this: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1...4f8e-b9fb-545e5c0f53af_large.png?v=1611154729

They come in different sizes, a 2" should work, or 2.5", I think pipe size is 2.25"

I just used a 2.5" and donut gasket on my 1994 cat converter

ahhh, ok... The pipe is actually 1.75" at the flange... Hopefully that does the trick, thank you!

It will, that's what its made for

So I just did my exhaust and it took me three days to cut through the down pipe flange ...
