2500 5.7 muffler

[Units]

That one looks a little shorter than stock, but definitely would be doable

I ordered the walker though, should be a drop in
$200 for a muffler seems excessive, but a local shop I contacted (the one who actually returned my call) wanted $476.50 for one...and another 175 to install it

I know businesses gotta make money, but dang. I’ve saved 1000’s of dollars over the years DIY, there is not anything I won’t do myself unless I just don’t have the time and or a specific tool that I just don’t have for the job and I just can’t see spending a good chuck of money for a one off tool.

Yup, same here (though sometimes I pay someone to do a job i just plain dont want too)

One thing that got me in this quote is the labor
Even at $100 an hour, it sounds like they think this will take almost 2 hours

I can not imagine it will take me that long to do it, laying on my back...and they have a lift

Iether way, ill time it when i do it, let tall know

It's the offset that makes it a bugger, and I don't think they let you search by dimensions

Its not like the old days where you could flip through a catalogue to find what you need

And you cant expect the kids behind the counter at AutoZone to do it anymore these days Iether

(On a side note, I walked into a Napa the other day and walked out with a voltage regulator for my 71 duster, right off the shelf, that was cool)

JEGs has quite a selection. They give dimensions.

So does Summit Racing and many manufacturers have specs listed.

Well, it turns out almost 2 hours with the proper tools might not be to crazy, it took me about 2.5 hours to get her off, using more 'non conventional' tools such as the 5 pound sledge hammer, the come along and of course, the 4 inch angle grinder

With the Walker 21219 it sounds like an EV

(I used to be able to hit the remote start and I could hear her fire right up, even when she's outside and I'm inside behind 6 inches of poured concrete...I'm gonna miss that little feature)

Im on the fence about the clamps, i think i can get another season out of em, but maybe i should replace them ?
