I would just buy some mufflers and tips if you want them and go to an exhaust shop and tell them what you want. Ebay has flomasters for good prices.

That would be a nice setup. You can most likely just go to a shop and tell them what you would like. They can most likely put it together for you.

True, that would be cheap. If you are staying online for a while and want to talk I have AOL IM (if you do as well that is). If not that's fine, I just figured it would be better than posting all the time. my IM screen name is: Link64721

Go with the true dual with some nice flowmasters, If your going with flowmasters id get a 70 not a 40 but thats really your choice.

Whats The Differance???

40 series are extremely noisy. They kind of make a drone sound in the cab. 70 series are still nice and grumbly but aren't as annoying when driving on the high way or at faster speeds for long distances.

No problem. Under the site you can see many diagrams for their different systems. Just go to a model of exhaust you want and it should have a picture. Well I'm off for now, later.

40s are to damn loud, 70s still produce a nice sound but are not ear periceing like the 40s.

I would just buy the flowmaster mufflers or glass packs and then route the pipe yourself, it doesnt hafta be real particular as to where it goes. While your at it pick up a set of cut-outs, a nice buy.

one more ?....where would i mount the muffler..closer to the engine or towards the back..will there be a differance in sound if its closer or farther from the engine???

Somewhere aroud the middle of the truck would be best. It should balance out the sound. Most people normally don't put mufflers real close to the engine. I'm not sure what moving it far back would do.

Let me know how it works out. Any planned time on doing your exhaust project? I was hoping to build my own cat back system but I don't have a welder where I live. I would have to use my school's in our Ag Science room.

Sounds interesting. Building exhaust to your own specs would be fun. Good luck with it, I seriously hope it turns out well for you. :)

Don’t put the muffler to close to the engine, you will get extreme cab noise! Also run the pipes over the rear axle, not under it… Keep good clearance from ur rear shocks, and don’t put too much leverage on your mounts for the pipes, because they will snap over time.
Oh, and I run 40s...if your going to do it, do it right :grinyes:
