I assumed I was in need of a driver side donut. However all the parts stores all say there is no listing for one on my year truck. The walker catalog also shows no such gasket. Now I know I have play in my pipe and there is a large gap. I picked up a donut for a late 80's F150 for $2 to try. I guess my question is this.... Is there a donut in there? If there isnt what creates the seal? Thx in advance.

 

133 views and nobody has came across this before? Boo. lol

 

disregard everything mentioned above......finally got to look at it during the daylight hours. My converter pipe flange is snapped. Oh joy.

 

the downpipe end of the manifold is a ball fitting, no gaskets

studs are a weak point with age/rust

 

Yea ended up buying a new driver side converter pipe. Had to McGyver some things to make it work but it is on and much quieter than it was lol However I think with all my banging and cutting I may have disturbed the pass side a bit too much and it may be next.
