Im going to have to try what jt did with the clamp, because i already know what its like to have the oil on the side of the truck(turbo gone wild).
John, its bad, if you going 70 or at steady speed its within tolerances for 50-200miles drive , i have to go for 2700 its no way you can live with it, unless you wear ear plugs,
and when you get on it, its like LION howling in the wild,
but it gets to you on bad days, makes you wanna go back to CANNON club, but i allready chop it up, so no turning back, i have to remedy the problem i have now, which i think will be internal mufflers,

My buddy has 7" bull haulers and they arnt bad, but they are pointed out, hmm, im thinking about 6"s now since i do drive 350 miles to go up north, quite a bit in the winter months.

My old 5"turn outs were not bad at all to me but once again they were turned out. Maybe ill just get the 6's they are cheaper anyways.

Is your truck a crew cab, or ext cab?

At least you have some class with the sound of your exhaust. The others are just obnoxiously annoying. Ever hear the exhaust note of a cummins on a dyno? It sounds like a riceburner!

hmm whats your advise to it, should i get them or not, i have a cc and no wife, so i think i can handle noise. I really like the look of the 7's but if they are too damn noisy im gonna back down to 6's instead.

answer to the question do those drop in mufflers work? Yes one of the guys around here I used to truck with had 8" straights on his pete he used for pulling a bullrack, thought it was cool for about 4 months then couldn't take it anymore bought a set of the drop in mufflers and it was still loud but definatly took out most of the drone, and did quiet it down quite a bit.

We have the worlds largest truck stop here in iowa and I know they used to carry them but just looked on their web site and don't list them there. I might get a chance to swing by there this week and can ask if you want although you probably need them faster than that. or if you want I can find a number and you can call them and ask, some of their stuff is pretty reasonable and might give you a comparison

Edit here is the website
