    It's a magnaflow part number 14866. 5x14" round. 2.5 in and out. Polished. I really like it. It's small so it's easy to fit and sounds really good

    Alright, you inspired me to go this route on the rear of my Taco, hope to have in in the shop soon, currently they are building up my 9"

    What kind of numbers are you pulling on the rear if you don't mind me asking? Any issues with the axle shifting due to the panhard bar? Looks like you made the panhard bar as long as possible to minimize that correct.

    Mine is pulling 21" of travel with a 16/18" shock combo. If you ditch the bed you could move the shocks up the links a little more and get some more travel. The axle does move side to side do to the panhard bar but you don't notice it at all when driving.

    That's plenty for me, only have 3.5" over so 14" of travel on my front LT so 21" out back would be great. Thanks for the info. Plan to keep the bed as intact as possible due to my truck being more geared to overland travel. I just want to soak up anything on the long dirt roads. When I did the Mojave stock my truck hated one section.

    So no real truck updates. Only things I have done are, revalve the shocks, put a new back window, and changed up the front spring rate. Got it all loaded up for thanksgiving today

    It nice to have a full bed. This is why the truck is so squated in the last picture

    Sadly no updates. I put a couple sticks in the tire back in November and just finally got a new one yesterday. I have been busy doing some landscaping in the backyard to keep the wife happy and also building my 69 bronco. I need to snap a few pictures of the skid plate mounted too.
