Haha yeah, it was cut because I'm installing the Greg Davis rear bumper, it has to be installed, welded, and then taken off to be powder coated. How much louder is it without the rear res? I was thinking about cutting it off right near the exhaust hanger. Can't wait to get rid of that stupid bumper.
I didnt want to cut mine at first and deal with the added noise but i almost bent it off on the trail. When i did cut it i was surprised it wasnt that much louder, sounds good, chop it! ....i did cut mine with enough straight pipe that i could weld on a coupling and resonator back on.
thanks!

Well after getting back to Germany (home is where the Army sends you) last week from 11 months in Afghanistan, I haven't done anything to or with my Disco since October when I was on mid tour leave. But today I did pick up my new Cooper Discover AT3s! I'm recovering from a minor surgery and have family coming to visit tomorrow for a couple of weeks so they will just sit in the garage and make me wish I could get to the shop to mount them, but they are at least here. I went with the 265/60/18 so the next thing might have to be shocks and springs. We'll have to see.

I'm going in for surgery in the morning and recovery will probably take a couple of days. After that, I was planning on making a write-up covering the install (wiring and so on). But those two links should provide a good bit of info in the meantime.
P.S.-- that washer bottle kit is probably small enough to fit in the space where the jack is located if you don't want to buy the dual tray. May require a bit of trimming on the stock battery box but is do-able...

Stopped by my local shop to see how my head gasket/general engine check up and rebuilt was going. They got the new rear driveshaft in that eliminates the flex coupling. The engine is almost back up together, we are just waiting for some of the ARP Head Studs to arrive before they can get it all together.
They also reprogrammed the SLABS ecu to eliminate the computer thinking its a SLS vehicle. They also changed the reverse sensors to not alarm while backing up due to the spare tire by changing the angle of the cameras.
