Northern Virginia Roll Call

Nice!

 

But doesn't have a date. Just know when my tenant is moving. We have work we want to do on the new place while it's empty.

 

oh I would never get "nerf bars" aka damage multipliers. What I meant was sliders with steps built in. haha

aloha from Hawaii (soon to be Ashburn)

it'll be sliders, then bumper, then winch, skids will follow soon after.

but from everyone's consensus it seems that sliders are the way to go before a bumper.

 

I would say skids after sliders, but if you are pretty aware of your limits on lines then that can take a backseat for a little bit.

Coot

 

agreed for sure. I dont plan on beating the hell out of my brand new truck (too hard) I always try to be conscious of my lines.

 

If I were to go with an exhaust, would a magnaflow 11245 be good? This one

$130 MagnaFlow Performance Exhaust Muffler 11245: 2.25"/2.25" Inlet/Outlet, 4x9x18" Oval, Stainless Steel, Satin Finish

But I could get it from a local mechanic for a little cheaper.

 

And another noob question incoming... Will I need more exhaust mods than that to affect the sound or is that all I need and just keep the rest stock?

And I got some stickers added to my truck recently

 

i dont think you need a exhaust anymore those stickers just added all the noise and horsepower lol

 

That's what I was thinking but maybe a little more won't hurt... Unless.... I get some more stickers

 

but noise yes a cat back system will be what you want. i would recommend stainless so you dont have to replace it in a couple years.

 

What exactly is a "cat back system"? Sorry for all the questions

 

Everything behind the catalytic converter.

 

Okay I'll just do a full Google Search cause it looks like I'm missing a lot of info.

 

It will include the tube, muffler all the way to the tip. Sometimes new exhaust hangers are included but I would double check. It's a simple job. If your bolts are rusted on your catalytic converter I would buy new hardware for that. If you need a hand let me know. I'm willing to help

 

i can help you with getting one and installing if you would like also.

 

Can you help me? My stock Y pipe is welded to the TRD exhaust. Need a new flange. Don't know if the Doug Thorley Y pipe is legal as it deletes the rear cats

 

What is an example of what I would need

 

Especially if you make any short trips. Short trips will kill an exhaust real quick

 

If you got a trd catback exhaust, it would bolt onto the flange after the catalytic converter(s) and include a muffler and stainless steel pipe all the way to the exhaust tip

 

ya i can take care of you. rear cats are not monitored so they dont matter.
