Odd looking exhaust - tubes added to shape sound:

So in general it went well. I've probably installed over 50 different exhaust kits over the years and this one took a little more to line up than most. I have a leak at the lower slip coupler after the cat (Pic above with resonator removed) Basically, the stock clamp ID is larger than the OD of the new pipe. I plan to take it to a shop tomorrow and have the coupler welded to the new pipe. (Still removable - the sleeve will side off of the stock pipe as well.)

Sound is good - I have to figure out how to post the clips as they are too large to upload.

Sounds great. Any drone issues in the cab with the tips in that location?
 
Sounds good, any concern about hitting exhaust if you high center the truck offroad?

For me personally, no as I am not an aggressive off-roader. I think if you were aggressive it would have some impact, but not sure how much.
 
Is the tips welded on or clamp so they can be tucked under the truck a little more?
 
I just ordered the same system but also ordered the mid pipe and headers.

The system looks well made, how do you think it compares to others you have installed????
 
They clamp and can be adjusted. I welded mine on because I didn't like the look of the clamps
Thanks for answering. I was thinking of ordering the afe exhaust for when my truck gets here

Kit was good quality. I did have an issue with the slip fit after the cat and decided to weld that fitting due to a small leak. I also added another hanger at the outlet because I thought the system moved more than I liked.
