Default 4" to 3" reducer

I'm looking for a 4" to 3" exhaust reducer for my mufflex Y. I found one from Hooker but it's 4" od and it doesn't slip fit like it should. Instead it butts up to the Y pipe opening. I need a 4" id

anyone know where I can get one?

you could always have the end of it expanded at an exhaust shop if need be

You're going to have to probably weld up a slip fit reducer anyway, as a clamp there probably won't work. You can buy 4" couplers, weld one end to one pipe, let it slip over the other end, and use a clamp.

Thunder sells the 4x3 reducers.

I have the one from thunder but it doesn't fit. I have it welded up but it looks like crap and it's pretty mangled. I'm redoing the exhaust on the car so i thought I might be able to find something that actually fits correctly.
