[QUOTE="MattRobPhoto, post: 1400101, member: 36517"] I got back in town tonight jumped in it and drove the crap out of it WITH video and I could NOT get it to do it! Not sure what's up with that, but it wouldn't do it. I tried all kinds of different runs at it. Nothing. I guess that's a good thing. Not sure what's going on.... Regarding the stock muffler: Ya know, those guys on youtube with their PERFECT tools, and PERFECT lifts and all that sure do make it look like it's an EASY ass job to simply remove the muffler. 1. They do NOT tell you about the little tiny metal clips on the stock connections on the TOP where you canNOT see them! 2. They don't tell you about how you have to take the rear tail pipes OFF in order to get the male parts OUT of the female parts. There is no room for movement without taking the two tail pipes all he way off. 3. They don't tell you how difficult it is to get the NEW male end pipes back into the female ends so they are good and seated. Nope. They don't tell you NOR do they illustrate any struggle on their end whatsoever! Nope... it's super easy! 4. Without a lift, without the COMPLETE knowledge of everything it is by far a PAIN IN THE ASS to do! I've done this on my old Silverado and now on this Raptor. I will N E V E R do this again. Never. I don't care if it cost me 500 bucks to pay someone. I'm done with DIY exhaust. Nope. No more for me! Thank you. :) LOL! So... NOW... regarding the stock muffler. No. I am not putting that back on. I was so pissed off at that damn thing I threw that big, heavy, ugly bitch in the dumpster!!! Again, I could not reproduce it tonight. I'll mess more with it tomorrow when deriving, but who knows. I DO think that's what it was though. If I can reproduce it, I will do it and get video/audio footage of it and post. Any other suggestions on exhaust...? I don't want "loud" I certainly do NOT want "raspy" I don't want drone. I just want a lower note sound with some meat to it. Stock to me, sounds like a rice burner a high school kid tried to soup up for 70 bucks. Ugh... What about just going QUIET? I don't know. They REALLY need to fix the sound. Ugh.... [/QUOTE]
