This is an '03 7.3 diesel Excursion too!

Ford : Excursion: eBay Motors (item 390220874478 end time Aug-01-10 16:22:09 PDT)

Any ideas?

It's the custom dual exhaust.

It's takes a lot of fabbing to even TRY it, much less succeed.

The dual exhaust is common on the 7.3L SuperDuty trucks, but very difficult to accomplish on the Excursions because of the fuel tank.

Yes! 10,000 points for Stewart!

That's what I was getting at the whole time! Should have been more specific

If I could figure out just how they did it, I would definitely do it to my truck...
