width 6.00" in

weight 7.00 lbs

what is my best option for this? between the axle and back bumper? or does it look like i might not be able to use these?

I had one of these right off a y pipe and tucked up close to the driveshaft for awhile and still nearly drug the ground so def use right before the bumper. BTW they are loud as hell so be forewarned.

I'm used to loud, my Powerstroke was straight piped with dual 5" stacks. Couldn't talk at a normal level in or around that truck.

Now the question is does anyone make a kit that will allow me to put dual mufflers coming out the back?

I just built a system for my friend using that muffler. Its sounds wicked as hell. Wayyy better than a bullet, much more refined. Its a big muffler but you can tuck it if you bfm the tunnel back near the rear seat. This system was a big 4" flowmaster merged ORY setup. You can hang up fitting one on the driver side though IMO.

I will see if we can get some pics but I can tell you that the tunnel mount torque arm brace is lower than the muffler.

On second thought, I think it will work. We used the 4" in/out muffler which is 6" diameter. If you want a 3" it will probably only be 5" which is still big, but if you go with the short one and bfh the floor you may be good.

where is everyone getting the true duals that come out the back? i cant find any except the kooks... and I'm not paying $2000 for something that i could piece together for $300.00-$400.00 i don't mind paying someone to do all the work and labor into designing a setup but I'm not going to be gouged either.

,Question, i have tsp duals with st now, im looking to swap them out, what muffler setup would give me more of that vette tone, i still want it to be kinda loud just not as loud as it is now,i was looking into the mmagnaflow4x9s,or the borla mufflers that come on the stinger catback,but those are not cheap, im looking for a loud/vette tone, i love the deeper tone, i just dont think bullets is the way to go,i will also trade the st if someone has what im looking for,the st sound killer but there to loud,

I really dont work on cars much right now because I have no place to work. Im divorced now and my garage is gone. I get lucky and borrow a friends shop sometimes if I need to do something but I just dont have the luxury of working on cars like I used to. Sucks really.
