Not much different but it's clean, got the mud and dirt off =) and is now sitting under the carport all dry while it rains

edit: I want to cut that tip off and do something to hide my exhaust, any suggestions? I'm thinking turndown but i really dont know

Here's what I did with my exhaust. I just grabbed a hack saw and cut it off even with the body line. I have had it this way for at least 6 months and have not had any issues with exhaust in the cab or anything. If you are standing at any distance you cannot see it from aroumd the truck. I did it because I hate how chevy has the pipe bent there and I thinks if just looks silly. It's a free alternative I hope it helps you some. I wish I was still in Florida. I used to live right on South Side Blvd like two blocks from the mall in Jacksonville so I wasn't far from you at all. I haven't been there in years though.

Thanks! it does look good, does it sound any different?

Update: i'm ordering a pa speaker monday! Debating on mounting position, then im ordering a new cb with a pa lol

rexmburns May 23, 2012 03:40 PM

I didn't notice any difference in sound at all. I really only took off like 6". What PA speaker are you getting. I didn't see a CB antenna on your truck so if you aren't actually using the cb portion of it there are just PA options out there that may save you some money.

97CountryJukeboxLt May 23, 2012 03:44 PM

it's a magnetic mount, i've got a piece of metal riveted to the top of my hatch, like where the plastic is next to the rear light. I mount it on there, it's an eye sore when i just dont use it much.

I keep my antenna down in the crevice below it, i've got a cb in their i'm thiking the next step up in cb, i've already got one but it's the 40 instead of the 50 so it dosent have a pa option

Edit: It's a 4x6 weatherproof

Okay, it's been a while here's what's going on. I ordered suspension source 2" drop spindles, some misc stickers, I got my steering fixed and alignment done with full mood parts :P I'm looking at drop shocks atm prob bell tech and removing the bump stops

Can't wait to see it. I've always wanted to drop a 4 door. Got rid of my first jimmy before I could.

Sorry for the big pics and crappy quality, I'm alright my necks a little stiff but feeling good other than that and my trucks being gone. I might buy another truck I leave in 5 months for MCRD Parris Island (Marine Corps Boot Camp for some who don't know) So i'm looking around for cars to beat around in until then
