I got it done at a shop. They used a Flo Pro SS straight through single in - dual out muffler, then custom bent the pipes all the way to the back. Basically a glass pack, I could look in one end & out the divider at the other.

Did it yesterday actualy. Went to Princess auto and bought myself a brake line double flaring kit. and fixed the brake line to the rear brakes. Then blead the rear brakes. Used a method I found in the forums to bleed. dont remember whos post it was but THANKS!! to whoever posted it (you know who you are). Put a clear Hose on the bleeder screw and other end in a jar of clean brake fluid. then pumped the brakes by myself while watching the jar for air bubbles. worked like a charm! was interesting doing the right rear while looking in the side mirror. lol. Lead to a potential new problem though. The front Calipers are quite rusty and the bleeder screws are basicaly non exsistant. might have to do an overhaul on them. or call the scrap yard. hmmm.

finally got 30 seconds to fix my 4WD this afternoon (replaced my TCCM).

went to change my right fog lamp bulb, but couldn't figure out if i needed to remove the actually signal/fog assm from the grill or not. since i can't rotate the bulb to get it out, i'm figuring "yes", but thought i'd double check before breaking it.

any info on this people?
