Question Exhaust Issues

I'm in a tight spot with my '98 LT. My exhaust pipe just snapped off right at the base of the flare, going into the 3 bolt flange into the manifold. Is there a kit or something I can use to fix it short of buying an whole new exhaust pipe? Yeah, I know a junk yard is the easy answer, but I'm kind of isolated on an island without access, so that won't really work.

Welcome to the Tahoe forum. Can you remove the flange portion and get it welded back on?

Yeah you sould be able to. If not, take it to an exhaust shop. They won't charge you much to cut and re-flare it.

Oh and welcome to the Chevrolet Forum's Tahoe hangout.
