Thinking about putting dual exhaust on. Any recommendations on aftermarket or would a local shop be just as good to fabricate one?

Any other suggestions?

I think johnsons muffler shop in delmar will put a Y pipe and 2 tail pipes on for ya. They do good work and weld everything.

Cool, I was thinking about Johnson's also. So they do good work, right?

Yes and I think it's lifetime warranty...

Damn Barry, you the man. I was gonna say do a 4" and run 33s or so. And George you know where to go for that!!!!!!!!! And Barry thanks for the link to the tint paperwork. I'll see if Susan can get it signed for me. I am sure she has a few doctors that would be cool.

Ryan, do you think a lift will make it too unstable?

DAFBFD58 · #11 (**permalink**) 05-25-2008, 12:14 PM

Nah George. I think you will be fine with a small lift. Even if you only ran 31s it would look better.

So hows it sound? Look?
Where's the pic's?

George I did the cheapy 2" lift on my BII with the spacers on the front.
I had blocks on the rear but wouldn't recommend it unless the blocks were
steel.
The aluminum blocks I started with cracked, but then again I actually wheel it.
Finally went with 4 leaf Xplorer HD leafs and then added 2 out of the old pack and got the 2 inches in the rear back. Now it sits level.
That's a good price on wheels. Ihave the first set of spokes on that website
in 15X8's

Sounds real good Dave. Don't know if I'm sold on a lift just yet. Still thinking on that one.

Picks to come, spent the rest of the day in Wilmington yesterday.
