Exhaust/ Locks

I just purchased an 86' Bronco, which has a 6 inch lift and sits on 35'' BF goodys. Nice truck, but has some rusted out cherry bombs on the dual exhaust, which is throwing some major fumes into the cab. Im thinking about dropping a couple of mufflers in place of the bombs, any idea how much that might run, or any suggestions on types?


Also, the previous owner did not have the key to lock/unlock doors. I contacted ford to see if I could give them the VIN and get a key, but no luck. Next best guess would be a locksmith or to pop out the lock behind the door panel and take it in. Has anyone else done any lock work to their truck?

Exhaust - Depending on what you get it will prolly run you about 300 on up for a new muffler and tailpipe for both sides. Check out some of your local muffler shops and they can give you a good estimate.

Locks - The factory will not give info like that. Too many ppl have gotten the VIN from the bottom of the windshield then had a key made for a vehicle that isnt theirs. DRIVE IT to a locksmith. They can get the info from the VIN and cut you the right keys. Or call them. They will come out but it usually is more expensive that way.
GOOD LUCK!
