I just put mine on last Saturday.....it was easy. Do you have all the hardware included, because I go the shaft & got no clamps with the kit. You'll have to drop the spare to get the stock pipe out(I did) and unbolt & crossmember bar & move it to the side. 2 hrs max.

I noticed you have a different tip than mine does. Mine has the 3" pipe in side the tip. I lowered the spare tire and just jacked the passenger side up about 2" to get the stock pipe out. Piece of cake took me about 1.25 hours by myself in the driveway.

Hey does Magaflow sell the same exhaust with an exit before the rear tire?I've got a SCSB 4wd model and would like the exhaust comming out there if possible. I've seen and heard the system you guys have and it sounds pretty sweet without being obnoxious.

I didn't even have to drop my spare on mine??? The stock cat back came off by removing 2 bolts...very very easy. And then just 2 bolts to go back on, plus the muffler clamps. I found that the farther I pulled the tailpipe away from the body, the less resonance I had going down the road. At first it was very close, then I loosened up the rear muffler clamp and pulled down on the tailpipe. It is much quieter now. Just an FYI.
