Soldier64 presents Foxy II's build.

[Soldier64]

As you all now I got my SCAB, Foxy II, last week and she has 287 miles on her and I just couldn't wait to start putting all those parts I have on! So without further delay I give you my build thread...

I'll start by saying I could barely get this beast on the lift at the Auto Skills Center. The guy was hesitant to let me use it but I'm glad he did.


I put my short metal antenna on because I like the look of something a little bigger than the craven style.


Next I put the Designs N Signs grill letters on in subdued American Flag and I love this mod! Absolutely perfect for me and my taste.


Airaid intake from SW was next along with a diablo tune. I won't bore you with details as its a 20 minute job and 10 of that is opening the box.


Now the tricky part. I ordered the performance lightning style exhaust from SW with their headers. As I scared to try the headers on my own at this point I called them and got a Y-pipe to attach it to the stock manifolds. Well it was supposed to come with an extra clamp or two and directions but none of that made it into the box. Not that it would matter in the end since it didn't fit anyway. I was about 4 inches short and ended up cutting everything about 5 times and welding just to make this work. In the end I'm as happy as can be and love love love the sound and power.






The exhaust was a pain in the ass considering the shop had nothing but a hacksaw and a vice that they would let me use. I had to pay the attendant to weld for me but in the end all is well. I'm just wondering why it didn't fit out of the box...? Anyway the headers are still here in the box and hopefully I'll bribe some help to install them and be done. :yeah right:

Let me know what you guys think, please!

This is the original fit. It was way too far back and just wouldn't work.


Here are the finished product pictures I took after cut after cut and some welding I didn't plan on doing.

I think... I would've just left the back end of the exhaust cut off, but that's just me

Looks so sick bro! Maybe they sent you something for an Screw for the exhaust? still though, looks great! Happy you got your truck! Put those headers on.

As others have said, looks awesome, just not my cup as far as the cat back and intake go

I live in Germany dude, I needed something! Can't roll around here without an exhaust you'll end up paying for it in fines and emissions tax. Plus I love the lightning style.

Bro, thanks! I know I need to get the headers in but you need to get your ass here to help. Maybe it was a Screw set up but I made it work anyway haha. That's what we do right. Identify the problem, figure out a solution, and drive on!

You could've rolled around with it off for a day and then put the new cat back on, then the locals wouldn't be as butthurt about the noise as they will be now
