Thought I edited my previous post about the exhaust change, but I guess not...here's a pic of the Thrush welded muffler replacing the mid-muffler, and the glasspack replacing the rear muffler...it might be 2.5" from the engine down the Y-pipe, but it definitely steps down a bit from there on (the muffler and glasspack have 2.5" inlets and outlets)...

Question: how do you remove the hardware that holds up the now-torn away rear mud flaps? The side that faces the tire is smooth, and the securing hardware on the back side doesn't look like a socket or wrench will fit around it?

Seriously?! I mean I have a sawzall, but why the over-engineering for something so simple?! Hopefully, the metal isn't Grade 8, and will cut easily...

Its to ward off all those British muddy flap thieves like rubber hood

I was thinking of doing the mini Res like that since mine is loud with no cats and that muffler

Well its been over the past few days but I replaced the water pump, got the Saginaw pump all squared away and bled, removed the abs modulator and got my winch. Still lots to do to get the coilovers on. Also have a RHD knuckle for the left side on the way to move the track bar up front to a crossover style steering setup to make lots of room for links. I need donations!

Had to take her back to the shop after having tranny replaced. Won't shift into high gear until 3200 rpm and even then its a heavy clunk shift.
