Ford or new holland do not have these parts but can order them at a cost of half what I paid for my tractor. I may have to go that route but was hoping to find something aftermarket that is just a bit cheaper. Thanks

You paid 6500 and the exhaust is half that??? Come on now...

The Donaldson mufflers on those tractors are worth about 300 bucks give or take a bit. Just check the pipe inlet size... and check prices for the 7000, 76/7700, and 76/7710. They should all be the same basic muffler. Buy the cheaper one. The other option is a straight pipe, bent and formed at a muffler shop. That will make the tractor somewhat louder, but it's not terribly noticable if the tractor has a good cab and the pipe extends higher than the cab. That should cost 20 or 30 bucks.
If you need the flange and pipe that attaches to the turbo the best suggestion I can make there is a muffler shop. Take the old one to them and have them replicate you one. Make sure they get the correct flange on the pipe for the turbo. That pipe I would expect is quite expensive from NH...

Do not go and put one of those glasspack mufflers on or any other gasoline engine muffler. It will have too much restriction for that engine. A pipe is better than that. You might shop around at the dealers and get an aftermarket muffler of that basic size that will do for less money... but it'll take some shopping.

Well maybe I over did it a little bit but it may as well be that high. All kidding aside the Flange alone is nearly $400.00 and that not everything that I need. They want $500.00 for the exhaust manifold and $200.00 for the elbow and I do not even know yet the cost of the turbocharger housing that bolts to the manifold. I do not need the muffler. and that seems to be the least expensive thing and of course there are gaskets. My question is on the flange it's not just a connecting plate but has a flange inside of it that connects the exhaust seal to the turbocharger. Would a regular muffler shop be able to duplicate this. We can duplicate the shape and size of the flange but cannot replicate the part that connects to the other parts.

Hmmmmm.... now I see. I thought you just needed a muffler and pipe. The stuff you're talking there could easily exceed half what you paid if you buy from NH. Very easily....
First question... What happened to the old stuff? Manifolds can sometimes (often times) be welded if it's just a crack. If it's rotted out, it's a goner. If you have problems with the turbo housing, replace the turbo. The best way of going about that is to look in your local yellow pages for a Diesel fuel injection shop that does injection and turbo's. They can assess the turbo you have for repair or quote you a new one. I can tell you that NH probably wants about 3 grand for the turbo unless their prices have dropped drastically... There is a gasket between the turbo and the manifold and the manifold and head, neither of which are particularly expensive.
I'm not sure how the 7000 is setup above the turbo without looking in the parts book.... but my 7710 simply has a pipe clamped to the turbo that is supported above the radiator, and that pipe exits through the hood where the muffler attaches. The 7000 is probably a bit different but the idea is the same. Make that pipe from the turbo to exit up through the hood and then install the muffler.

Salvage is probably the best route if you need a new manifold. Local salvage might be your best option. Depending on where you are, Fawcett Tractor Supply in Ontario will have one. I've also got a few turbo manifolds kicking around. If you're interested, e-mail me and let me know and I'll check the numbers and make sure they cross to the 7000... but they may not.

By the way since writing the last message someone contacted me reguarding the exhaust manifold and there is an aftermarket for this part at a fraction of the cost so I have that part taken care of. as far as the condition of my existing parts, only the elbow is deteriorated to the gone point. the flange and the gasket that connects to it are not completely gone but are pitted to the point where when removing the elbow those parts are not salvageable. the bolts connecting them are seized up. But the Turbo itself is fine except the housing needs replacing.

If you are talking about the turbine housing of the turbo that is bad.... then replace the whole thing. That is the major part of the turbo unless by chance you can find a used one. I'd really suggest checking with a injection/turbo shop on that. They may be able to fix it for you or at least quote you a fair price on a replacement.
Also be very very careful when ordering a manifold for that tractor. I believe that the 7000 had a single inlet turbo and a basic manifold. Later tractors had a twin inlet turbo and needed a manifold that divided the flow into two streams for those turbo's. Just observe that carefully when you replace them. Keep that stuff matched. I'd expect that you could change the whole shot out and be fine but don't put a twin inlet manifold under the single inlet turbo...

I've only got a vague idea of what elbow/gasket you're dealing with, but if it was me I would get straightened out with a turbo FIRST and then match the pipe to the turbo flange. The setup I'm thinking of is a simple flare and band clamp. There isn't any gasket in there... and I'd expect that if you go with a modern turbo it will be setup with a modern flare type flange...
