Crossover pipe newer style -- advice?

I have a newer style exhaust crossover pipe and drawing a bit of a blank on how to modify it to re-route driver side given the joint piece being solid

anyone have advice for how to do it? other than just buying a new pipe from ors?

did a search found a bunch with the older style which looks pretty straight forward, but hoping to avoid buying more parts right now...

thank you

I know I saw quite a few write ups on doing your own crossover pipe .

Mine is solid and I never gave it any thought .

Just what are you not sure of??

took a fresh look and think I have an approach

it's the Y at the end that I'm not to sure about, but thinking I can grind it down flip it around and otherwise re-assemble similar to the older style

have a piece of flex pipe I pulled from a yard handy to make it a bit easier

There are no hard and fast rules I know some that have run the crossover pipe under instead of over the top.

All depends on if ground clearance is a Major Issue in the use of your Truck

i ran my crossover underneath tucked in close for clearance, eliminating extra heat under the hood and against the firewall.

win win...

like stated above if you route the exhaust underneath you need to route it with ground clearance in mind.
