FWIW,if you can find an exhaust system from a 2500 3/4 ton,it would be a bolt in upgrade to the 1 7/8" system you have now.
yes, they have metal "donuts" in the joints, that is how they seal. i replaced the driver's side and fixed the leak. this exhaust is about as clean as i have ever seen. i know about the 2500's, but 2500's around my area generally see farm/ranch use, the exhaust is long gone by the time they are retired. i've been keeping an eye out, but haven't ran across one yet.
