So cutting the resonator off made a noticeable difference for sure. I would say more than just a “noticeable difference” the truck sounds almost like it has different exhaust system on it. Give it a little more “raspiness” and a lot deeper pronounced hemi rumble....but, Taking the resonator off does do what you would assume, it creates a little bit of drone around 2200-2,500RPMs as well as a very slight notice of drone around 1700 RPM. Doesn’t bother me.

Now this truck sounds
like I wanted it to.

Did you run a custom pipe all the way out the back or dumped it around the axle... or just left the pipe cut off?

For now it’s cut off as close as a sawsall would let me get to the resonator and that’s it. I orderd a nice tip from Nick to put on it. Just for a little better look and to add a few more inches to help it get out from under the truck. Not sure how well the tip will fit on because there is a bend close to the cut off point. Nothing a little weld cant fix though.

hello,new guy here, I replaced my restrictive muffler (and flapper valve) with a walker 21467 resonator,short piece of 3.5" pipe and a couple of universal hangers,total cost less than $100.00, nice old school glasspac sound with no drone. pipes were not bent and lined up great, maybe change the angle of the tailpipe a little but not noticeable. Cheap alternative for folks on a budget.

Just to clarify I kept the factory resonator in place so with 2 resonators there isn't any drone.

Can you grab a photo of it on the truck. The stock muffler has a offset so I trying to figure how it could line up. Thanks

No problem at all. My son will be home this wknd and I will ask him for help to post them up. when I bought the resonator and pipe I thought I would have to bend the pipe, but when I did a trial fit I was surprised that it bolted right on with only a slight change in the tail pipe angle.
