Exhaust

Alright, I have a 2000 3.0L, stepside and I want to convert the exhaust to a 2 1/2" pipe after the cat and have it come straight out in front of the rear wheel. What muffler should I go with and how exactly would I change the pipe size after the cat? Thanks!

I have a 40 series on my 4.0L but you might take a look at aero-turbine mufflers. www.aero-turbine.com
