03 6.0 muffler delete pipe?

Hey guys I have a 6.0l 03 f350 regular cab, cab and chasis with a flatbed on it, I want to delete the muffler and possibly the cat. Ive looked up some delete pipes for these trucks but all ive found say will not work for cab and chasis or excursions. Any ideas or links that might help would be appreciated.

measure your wheelbase and call the manufacturer of your choice. I'm sure that there is one out there for Your truck. BTW You will love it!

Im not looking for a whole tailpipe so the wheelbase shouldnt matter, all i want is pipe to fill were the muffler is now and use the existing tailpipe, and all of the mufflers should be the same so Im still wondering why one that would work on a regular truck wont work on a cab and chasis.

Depending on the wheelbase the hangers and pipe bends may be in different locations. ie.... crew cab short or long bed configurations etc...

you can get sections of pipe from a muffler shop and do it yourself. my take is leave it stock. i have a 6.0l i just bought with 130000 miles pretty trouble free from the reports i got. the 6.0 is a great engine left alone. alot of power already there. not as bullet proof as my trusty 7.3 heard troubles from guys with power adders and good things from stock guys. good luck

No - you can't use a pickup exhaust system for a chassis/cab truck. The frame of the chassis/cab is different. None of the exhaust components made for a pickup will fit.

Well probly what I'll end up doin is just takin it to the local exhaust shop and havin them bend a piece of pipe to slip in place of the muffler.. Should I cut the cat out to? And is this going to gain me any performance or mileage? I'm not counting on any but it would always be nice. Thanks for the help guys.
