Places that sell big rig truck parts will most likely save you bunch over a RV parts supplier. Of course you will have to crawl under it and find out what size pipe you need. Just so you only have to measue once I would measure O.D. AND I.D. while I was under there.

I'm guessing here but I'm pretty sure your on a Freightliner Chassis. When I needed a new Tail Pipe for my 99 Tradewinds the local Freightliner Store just blew me off. SO I called Customer Service in Gaffney http://freightlinerchassis.com/ 1-800-FTL-HELP (1-800-385-4357)

After giving the guy my VIN Number he E-Mailed the engineering drawing of my tail pipe the next day. I'll attach it here on the off chance it's the same as yours. It's also here eaiser to read.... https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=ae67f...5&sc=documents
I sent the Drawing to guy in Mi and he made one up for me. I'll attach the quote he sent me as well.
In the end not a bad experience.
