Pipe expanders

mine needs to be sprayed with oil and tightened and loosened several times, to expand 3" exhaust pipe enough to allow a second 3" exhaust pipe to slide inside the first, but it will get the job done eventually so while its not ideal it is functional and DIRT CHEAP, compared to a decent professional grade tool.


something like this might be better, but remember the tool surface must slide easily so the inner pipe surface and tool must be kept well lubricated

like most things EXPERIENCE HELPS, but if you mock up whats needed its not going to be difficult to do.
generally you carefully measure, the length and angles and buy a few pipes to cut and weld and use a pipe expander

If you do buy a hydraulic exhaust pipe expander tool,
please post pictures,
where you bought it!
How long it was in transit!
the shipping cost if it did cost you to ship it?
and the price info along with how well it functions
