No offense taken man. I'm just kicking around ideas too. I never claimed that my ideas were the best ones...

In all honesty the truck will probably run better with 2.5" collectors and y mated to a 3" single cat back. If you already have the other y then I would just hack it up and reuse it.

A 5.3L motor doesn't need 3" collectors and y, I bet I'll pick up some substantial power after I get them installed.

Mine will be here Tuesday, prob wont install until later on. Don't see why they shouldn't work for yours too. Most long tubes I've seen are interchangeable 2wd-4wd. You just have to figure out what your gonna do from the headers back...with a transfer case in there.
