Following. I was planning to ask OTRAMM for a set when I got to that point.

He told me today. For one thing, he says the materials have become too hard to get/expensive. Maybe he will resume when things return to "normal."

Looking at it from a materials perspective, 3" OD 304SS tube is almost unobtanium right now.
Many of the tube sizes have been VERY difficult to get. There was a strike at a tube manufacturing plant that really killed availability of a LOT of different sizes, 6" OD and smaller.

The exhaust bends we use have a bit more than tripled in price. That and they've gone from a few days to get to over a month on the stuff we were able to get. For now at least it just isn't sustainable to keep making them. The smaller tubing for the filler necks is still available but also tripled in price, so we're still making them but I had to raise the price. Hopefully everything will settle down at some point and we can resume building them.

May end up having to go this route, though I was hoping for something higher clearance. Anyone ordered one from Toyota recently? Wonder how easy they are to get in reality...

I ordered a new exhaust for my HZJ80 through the dealer earlier this year. Two of the three bits came over from Japan as there was no current stock in Aus. No trouble with the order.
What about Beaudesert?
@jomelo has it on his 80 - granted a 1HD-FTE, but they offer 1FZ-FE. Looks to be some top notch stuff.

I ordered a full exhaust from Toyota maybe a month ago. Took about a week to get everything.

It’s an extremely nice exhaust, fits like a glove.
Cheers
A few questions:
- any fitment problems on LHD cruisers vs the RHD cruisers they have in AU?
- did you get the ceramic coating?
- are there O2 sensor nipples on the tubing
- did the price include new cat and muffler?
- what are the power gains and driveability improvements
Regards

Beaudesert will not ship to the Us anymore. You will have to have someone in AUS buy it and ship here. I did that and it’s not cheap. It’s very nice though. Mine was for the diesel FTE so no clue about their 1FZ options.

Had a couple of drinks.. saw a couple of things
You could also try someone local. I had mine built by a hotrod shop. It was not cheap.
Hanksville Hot Rods - https://www.hhrproducts.com/ if you're in CO, does beautiful work.

You could buy the Pacemaker King Brown system - it's 409 stainless. You would have to have it shipped from Australia.
You could just get the center and rear sections and mate that up to the Magnaflow y-pipe, which is stainless.

Thanks for the lead. My 94 original exhaust is now my LC sword of damocles and going need be addressed soon.
