My exhaust also fell off! All the hangers tore, so I unbolted it at the first muffler, and its just dual into "y" right now, no cats. Guarantee i LOST power, have to mash it to get up to 50 on the highway! (sounds badass now, almost makes my second guess my diesel swap....almost)

Finally installed some relocation cones, too.

Got my settlement from my wreck. They are giving me $3600 for the truck and I get to keep the rack and any small stuff. I can buy it back for $625 but it has frame damage so I am looking for a another one. I only paid $2600 for it so I feel pretty good about it. I have State Farm in case anyone is looking, I have been with them since I was 16 and they have always taken care of me.

$625 is too much for a wrecked parts truck, IMO. Depends how much in aftermarket parts you have on it though.

Finally got around to looking for my coolant loss issue. Pressurized the system and discovered a leaky heater hose. Swapped them out with the ones from the parts truck. They have me back in action for now but I went ahead and ordered new ones from RovahFarm. Cant be $4.75 a pop!

I dunno..spare tires ,wheels, glass , int parts, drive train, suspension parts...seems worth it. If he buys the same yearish. Plus you know its history. Sell what you dont use make some of 625 back.. Id buy it!
