THAT didn't take long! I think this is the longest I've ever owned a truck and haven't (really) lifted it. I had it a year Memorial Day weekend. I don't consider a 2" LK a lift really. I would like to do a 4" SL or 3" BL from here, just don't have the funds right now. Wife and kids just spent 2 weeks at the shore I was there for the 2nd week so we need to re-supply the kitty copy? Maybe in the fall, maybe daddys Xmas present, we will see.

I want catbacks. They truly sound the best, IMO... just can't find anyone in my area who can or will install them. I had a small no-name organization tell me they'd build me something from scratch which would almost be the same but being military, we move a lot and I need to be able to walk into any place in teh country for warranty work.
My friend has a set of flowmasters, it is a pretty good sound but I've heard about rusting issues.
And in my dream world, I'd do the catbacks with glasspacks but since we live in suburbia, I'd prefer not to have my truck keyed every night

Looks like 409SS Catback Flowmaster system is the answer with a 40 muffler; so I may have 50 muffler up for sale LOL.
Hopefully I get email back from Marty tomorrow on the lift cost.
Need to find some time to make the 8hr drive to McAllen to see him.

I won't be too far behind you. Going to make the trip over to central MO to have a company do it but it won't be until mid-September. You'll have to post up a video when you get it done - see what it sounds like. Mine is the baby V8, though, so I'm sure it won't sound as grunty as the 5.4. Booo...

The rustmaster logo should be on the top of the muffler. It looks like their INLET stamping.
Magnaflow flows about 160cfm more than the same sized rustmaster.
The sound is not as raspy, but the flow is much better. If you want the most possible performance, you want Magnaflow.
