    You can do it using off the shelf 45° bends such as this:-

    Not easy though, and requires a lot of trial and error, oh and the patience of a saint!!

        Just to get over the driveshaft? I would think 2 or 3. Is there anywhere near you that makes exhausts? I was lucky in that there is a place near me, and they let me rummage through the scrap parts to get what I needed

          Theres a powerfrow centre near me but i had them make me a standard replacement exhaust 4 or 5 years ago and they made a mess of bending over axle pipe all ripples so it looks like i'll have to make my own this shouldn't be a problem as i'm a welder by trade. thanks for your help.

              Bit expensive jetex, give pipewerx a call , I used to live down the road from them , very nice people , helpful and very good at what they do . They have an ebay shop but your better off ringing them and telling them what you want ,will prob be even cheaper than what is listed on the bay.
