Default V band clamp

Well this is more of "need suggestions" I got the v band clamp off of the turbo by finally cutting it off with a side grinder, then getting a prybar and a hammer and beating the crap out of it. I need my truck goin asap. Does the dealership have these things available? I would call but it was just past closing time. Anyone got one from ford b4? I would order one from Kenny but like I said I need it asap!!!

What you mean rear? This is the clamp holding the downpipe to the turbo.

Napa can get them but have to size it off the old one. Cant do it by application. Way cheaper than Ford. Use tons of anti-seize when you reinstal it.
