    I've heard Dr. Smash can do some cool exhaust stuff but he's expensive. There's a new fab shop in town ran by one guy it's called 775fabrication and he's been getting really good reviews. That's who I was gonna use but I ended up just getting a cat back and putting it in myself. Another highly recommended one is Nate at Nate's precision.

    Thanks!
    Well I'm getting ready to do my shock relocate and the down pipe/end of the muffler crosses over my axle so I need to move it back about 10". I figured while I'm messing with it I would throw a cat converter in there to make me less stinky on the trails (pretty much bolt on I believe but the overall pipe length would need to be adjusted to accommodate). Lastly the two hangers would need to be realigned.

    Not a ton of work but my welding skills aren't up to the task.

    Why not just cut it off before the axle and dump strait down?

    The muffler extends over the axle too. I guess I could just cut the muffler off too and be super loud :headbang:

    Finally found a reno thread. I am always looking for trails and someone to go out on them with. I been out a few times in Carson City but hate the fact of being out there alone. I would like to have someone to tow me out if I get stuck. If someone wants to organize a meet/trail day or something along those lines I would def be down. Im new sorta to the area and slowly have grown to like the reno area.

    No, not good for me. I do not even know a place to go. Only thing I know is if it happens, Texas Road House would be a great place to get food after.

    McVays over here in sparks? Feel like I've heard of a few guys going through them for reasonably priced exhaust work

    Good to know. I think I'll give them a call and see what they say.

    We could get something together and run dog valley or peavine. Easy enough for most tacos, with some cool views. Might be best to wait for the ground to dry up some though.

    I used Landa Muffler on 4th street a few years ago to redo my Jeep exhaust. I thought they did a good job and they didn't charge an arm and a leg.

    Nice. I'll check them out. Mcvays quoted me 350 today for the job. Not super cheap. Or cheap at all.

    The snow is the best part! Lol!

    This was by BOCA yesterday. Clear roads in the sun, lots of snow on the roads in the shade.

    We will have to see what this next storm brings this week, but Im betting dog valley or Peavine will be explorable in the next week or so. Count me in on this trip!

    I been trying to get out near boca from hobart mills. It is plowed a little way then the snow starts. I noticed people been down a little ways. I just nervous to get stuck. Once you sink in its all over. I am kinda a pussy with my truck. I am unsure what it can really do. Its raining out good right now I think I might have to check it out see how far I can get.
