Exhaust:
Consist of 3" stainless steel parts with a small flex pipe since truck doesnt have solid motor mounts i dont want the pipe to crack
On to the exhaust ring

Not happy with the design still will change it a little and once i nail it i´ll make it out of stainless steel

Thank you, it means a lot coming from someone like you
I tried first to not cut the cab open but wheel wouldnt clear all the way turning so i had to cut the cab, its not the cleanest job since it was hard to acces and not to burn stuff welding peaces back in but here are 2 pictures that will give you and idea of what i did
I cut a peace of a 3" pipe and opened it up a bit and welded it in place and behind that i used a peace of metal to close the rest of the cab
I spot welded it in as seald as possible after that i tried cleaning it up grinding it and cleaned everything then i painted it with 2000f spray paint, all that area is actually covered now with the pipe so it can be seen
I lifted the inside carpet and covered the whole welding with high temp silicon to seal it, while it was still wet i covered it with 3 15 inches 2" exhaust wrap peaces and over that i laid down a peace of 15" x 10" aluminum foil laminated fibreglass heat protection cloth, i cut the sponge out of that area so the carpet wouldnt get higher on that place so everything looks clean and stock from the inside again
