    I use a nut driver to tighten them, doesn't let you smash the seal but you can still get them a little more than snug

    Did you not have a hardware kit included with it? When you open the box there should be three cardboard inserts holding the right header, left header and Y-pipe. Inside one of those should be a bag with hardware and instructions.

    Nice! I had my truck weighed before I got mine for a base weight. Then I got 650 over that. I haul a bunch of shit when I go camping/wheeling

    I used to but it's rare I'm fully loaded anymore for more than a day or two of camping, and my truck is still my DD without much weight at all day to day. Do you find them stiff at all without a lot of weight back there or is it not that bad?

    I wish it were that simple. There is no hardware.

    Here is the hardware list that you need and a picture of the hardware. I didn’t include it in the pics but there’s also a CARB sticker for California residents. The list came off the included instructions which are detailed and have torque specs. If you need those PM me your email address and I will scan and send a pdf to you.

    Magnaflow stock replacement muffler is breaking down, now it sounds kinda neat though. I've never been anything but dissapointed with magnaflow, I don't know why I keep expecting better. But oh well, I'll enjoy the sound until it breaks entirely. Listen with headphones or solid speakers, it's actually pretty damn deep, until it gets Japanese at the top end that is.... Every brap above 4.5k should come with a bowl of miso soup and some tofu.

    Well fuck. My horns went out. I had issues grounding my @BartMaster1234 horns when i bought them. But they just went out again. I think its my ground. Fuse is good. Relay was all wrapped up to prevent it from water damage. Do the brackets themselves need to be grounded too? Or just the ground wires?

    Thanks guys

    Do you have the two pin horns with individual grounding wires, or the spade connector horns?
