Well today I felt being its 45 out and no wind.im going to install the one of the new exhaust systems. Laid it out at around 10:30a.m. Went through and made sure everything was there and by 12:00pm I had dropped the stock exhaust and had the Magnaflow bolted in.
Remove all mounting brackets and hardware from the truck from the factory exhaust by unbolting it from the frame. Let the exhaust hang. Then loosen the factory clamp right behind the ball flange. I then supported the factory muffler with a jack to take pressure off the clamped connection. 20 lb sledge and a block of wood within 3 strikes exhaust fell off. I then jacked up the back of the truck at the tow hitch so that way we could clear taking the exhaust out as a full factory unit. I then slid all of the factory exhaust hangers onto the Magnaflow exhaust system. Then hung all exhaust peices by there exhausts hangers and snugged up the clamps. Once I had everything lined up I tightened all the connections. Good to go
Opinions deep and throaty. No cabin drone no raspy farm truck sound. Nice crisp and responsive. With a stock truck the lower rpm band feels smoother for sure. I'm hoping with the cold air kit we see a deeper sound from the exhaust and a little more throttle response. This was pretty straight forward and it sounds great and if I have to go back for warranty a swap is literally 2 hours away. Perfect and one of the easiest kits I have ever put on.
