Perfect, thanks for the replys! I was reading reviews on a couple systems and there was some people commenting that spare wouldn't fit after. That would be a deal breaker for me as I travel forest service roads regularly. I've even had two flats in a day was just lucky one was a slow leak and was able to get to a place with a compressor and fill it up so I could get back to town.

I bought a complete kit off E-Bay for $329 from world wide performance. It's now $299 and fits every engine option. Complete stainless system with a 40 series Flow Master muffler. You cannot beat the price. I decided I didn't like the clamps so I bought 2 bolt "step" style from Summit. I also thought the 40 series muffler was going to loud so I bought a 70 series along with the clamps. I added a screw auger in the pipe in front of the muffler from Speedway after I had the system on because it was still too loud for me. They are made for circle track use. Is a weld in and we have a mig so it wasn't a problem.
Would I buy the system again.....HELL YES ... I have under 1/2 cost than the $1K+ of other systems and did it myself in about 3-4 hours.
I did it by backing 1/2 way in to my garage, rear axle on jack stands and the right rear tire off. Took 1 cut by a sawzall on the tail pipe on the first rise after the muffler to remove the system. I have a Bosch battery impact driver and did all the rest with it. There were no instructions but I laid the parts out on the floor and figured it out from the drawing on E-Bay and marked each piece with a felt pen. There are 2 head pipes and it needs one cut to fit the truck u have. I did the muffler and tail pipes first, all loose clamped, and the muffler on a floor jack to make the front pipe cut so no big deal and that pipe could slip into the muffler a bunch making it real easy. The system contains 2 extra pipes so you can go out the side or out the back like I choose. I also could not use their front muffler hanger because the muffler. So I got another clamp and moved it farther forward as the 70 muffler was longer. My truck has a lot of lines on the left side of the spare behind the axle and I pushed them up a little and held them up with a couple of heavy duty black zip-tys. I've checked back there with a heat gun and there was no extra temp from the left pipe.
Others here have put on the same system...... Good Luck...
