Thanks for the heads up! I emailed them. Will any longtubes fit this truck or do I need to measure when buyin on CL

I think any should work fine. The issue is routing the exhaust around the transmission cross member. My cross member is low on one side and up on the other (s shaped). I chose to go over the cross member on the low side and to make the exhaust parallel to each other, the frame, and the ground. here is how I routed my pipe.


Had to go up on the driver side



Had to go in on the passenger side



Here's what it looks like, I cant find the picture from under my truck, but I'll take another one soon.

haaaa yeah I'm the guy changin a water pump outside below 30 degreezzz talk about burrr. Lol

Then it sounds like the next step is to get that sound out with some headers and new pipes....I mean i like mopars and i think that the new Ram commercials are halariouse inhow they attack ford so directly but he whats wrong with making a little noise. I'm putting flowtech headers on mine as we speak.

Do you have a 350 aswell? If so what's the part number for the flow tech headders your using?

      That my friend depends on if you want your wife riding in your truck or not.

I do have 350 tbi...there are only e few issues with these pipes but they are simple fixes. (1) you will have to take the heat shield off the starter so you can remove the starter and solenoid wires to cover the with a DEI sleeve(reccoment 3/4" sleeve). (2)Also the factory Y-pipe will not just bolt up. if you don't have true duals then heres your chance or you can fab up a few bends and cut the flange off the Y-pipe. I don't remember if you said you had a 4x4 or not but if it's 2wd then it will be even easier bc you don't have the passanger drop t-case or front drive shaft in your way. They are not smog legal if you are a Cali guy.

Amen, Amen...When I had my '04 dodge quad cab I ran it for a while without anything after the y-pipe..it was cool til i started driving from southeast GA to memphis. So i put a flow on it...however the flow dumped out right between the end of the cab and the bed...Talk about DRONE!!! My wife wouldn't ride with me at all.

[454Man]

Hey thanks! Its a 2wd so it should be somewhat easy. I do have the factory y pipe, but it will be for break in purposes only:) besides it has all the emissions stuff and well...
Might take a little longer than expected since I'm goin with a 700r4 and headders so that's extra budget $$$

When you get around to the 700r4 i highly reccomend doing your own simple lock-up for the torque converter. The factory controls suck and makes the tranny seem as though it's searching at certian speeds because of manifold pressure. It is realy simple and cost about $20 bucks instead of buying a stupid kit that will cost you 5 times as much. Oh and if you get the $$ monster has their monster-in-a-box on sale, which would make tha 700 last and pull hard.

$$ monster ?
What's that? I'm interested in anything that will make the 700r4 last longer. I had been reading up on the home made lock up kit for the trans, sounds like its easy

[454Man]

Found it online. Man now I'm thinking of red finding a good core and building it myself. If not this will put me way over budget I do understand the importance of this kit though

[frotosride]

Oh yea, this is prob  the easiest all around kit in a box. The most important thing is the sun shell. Most factory 700's fail at the sunshell splines but the "Beast" is just waht is says and will help with that extra tq.
