I'm not sure what to buy, can someone help me decide?

The three choices are:

1. Flowmaster 40 series muffler
2. CB radio with an external speaker (basically a PA system)
3. Driving lights for my Safari Light Bar

Any comments / suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

 

Depends on what you want, what you'll get the most out of etc.
Exhaust & sound?

Communication (not sure if you have used a cb before)

Driving lights aren't for a roof rack btw, flood lights are.
Driving lights are for the bumper or grille guard. IMO driving lights are awesome for far reaching illumination - as in safe. Being able to see what's around you or far ahead of you, especially at night is paramount.
Personally, I love my Piaa 520i fog lights. They're so bright & far reaching I can use them as driving lights!
They have a great spread light pattern that resembles a projector beam - has a cut off, narrow but wide beam.
That's along with the 6000K HID's in projector lenses in low beam.

 

Flowmaster then lights!

 

id go with the flowmaster. i just did my exhaust and there was a huge difference. mine got alot of pep back and sounds amazing.

 

@Rottidog, yeah I know. I was referring to my Westin Safari Bar, it would be amazing to have some Piaas but they're just not in my price range, so more than likely I would buy the Hella 500FF.

 

I do lighting first usually.

I wouldnt mind a VHF radio for my big rig next.

Nobody really uses CB radios anymore, they are kinda like buying an 8 track for your car nowadays. VHF is what most people on the road have now. Much longer range and there will actually be others to hear and talk with... I have a CB now, and rarely hear anything on it. VHF has channels for weather and traffic too.

 

+1 on CB being obsolete. It depends on what your skill level is. Do you know how to wire the lights? Do you know how to install the muffler? I would personally do the flowmaster ( I have a super 44 and love it) first then the lights. The first time you fire up the blazer with new exhaust will make you want to go on a road trip lol.

 

Yeah, I won't have a problem installing either, and if I do my cousin lives 20 minutes away. Alright, I think that's going to be the game plan. Flowmaster first and then lights.

The only reason I was going to do CB was for a PA system, I haven't looked up how much VHF is but for a CB radio it's under 40 dollars.

Thanks everyone.

 

I got the Flowmaster today! Man I can't believe how light and small this thing is compared to the factory muffler! It's pretty ridiculous, can't wait to get it installed -- hopefully I can get it welded in this weekend for a decent price. If not, I will just go ahead and use sleeve clamps.

 

Got the Flowmaster installed today! I have to say, I'm glad that I went with this. Definitely a good choice, it sounds awesome.

Thanks everyone, I'll update this thread again when I buy my lights.
