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.

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.

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

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

Well my Trucks Dead, big time



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
