    Does anyone know where to buy them or atleast look up pricing other than direct from their own site. Also does anyone have the setup on their 05-07 4.0?

    One thing I am torn on right now with buying an exhaust for my truck is ending up with something that sounds like a fart can on some of the V6 import tuner cars.

    Banks told me today that they are having a sale on their catbacks for the 4.0. They are $499.00 including free shipping.

    Ok, so it sounds good, but how does it perform? Did you do the install yourself? Welding required?

    I did install it myself, install was very easy since i had the use of a lift. I can see uninstalling the stock exhaust possibly being problematic just on ramps, but you might be able to manuever it off. Install of the Banks exhaust was cake. I had it all done in about 20 minutes. No welding is required. It uses clamp fittings. The exhaust is 3 sections. I may eventually have the sections welded together, but for now there is no leaks. It seems to perform very well. I was a bit disappointed with my truck after installing the TRD intake, but it seems to have freed up some power all around with the exhaust.

    How does the Banks exhaust performance rank with Borla or Magnaflow, anyone know? I have the TRD CAI also, how does it sound with the Banks?

    The Banks p/n 48137 exhaust says it fits double cab short bed or access cab long bed 2005-07. Does anyone know if I can make this fit my 08 access cab standard bed?

    Did you notice any significant performance gains? HP, MPG?

    Are sure it would fit? I'm going to get one but I wanted to make sure. The guy I'm buying it from wasn't sure if it would fit.
