My first truck!

[Chevy1500z71]

Take it to a local muffler shop(not Meineke or a chain store) They will know what to put on when you tell them the sound you want. Magnaflow, Flowmaster, and the like are over rated. I used glass packs on my 2002 Chevy and took off the catalytic converter. It sounded AWESOME. Should cost $250 or less to have dual exhaust put on.

i agree with you on magniflow but not flowmaster. magniflow is overrated. if i wanted a glass pack id get a 20$ chery bomb not an overpriced glorified glass pack(magniflow). flowmaster on the other hand is a totaly dfrent kind of mufler. it all depends on what type of sound you want. if you want the glass pack sound they all sound the same magniflow is just overpriced

my truck has the 02 senser before the cat so i have no cat without any problems, but if you have any sensers after the cat you service engine light will come on without a cat... something to think about before riping out your cat... and it cost me 600 for true dauls with 2 flowmaster 40s and an h pipe and tips and all.

 No doubt!! I get true Duals (very high quality work) with two Flowmasters and Stainless tips for 450.00... no matter what the truck.

if you want a spray in trust me go line x. rino is like a big piece of buble gum its realy rubery and can peel rite up. i have line x and its awsome. nice truck. id wait on the bull bars. get a 200$ body lift and see if u can stuff some 33s in there.

edit: if you have rhino im exagerating a litle bit dont bash me, reed this and see why i feel rhino isnt the best http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/general-discussion/exterior-tech/197127-rhino-vs-line-x.html

sory for kinda jacking you thread.

 Cory DONT do a body lift. Save your $$$ and do a suspension lift. Body lifts are a joke and ruin the value of your truck. Rhino is not the best liner but line x also is not the best choice, do some reserch on you own and get what you can afford and feel comfy with. I can get you dealer cost if that helps.

thanks for the offer swampdonkey, Ill keep it in mind for when I get the $. At first I liked body lift b/c of price, but Ive read about the amount of labor that goes into it (not a big deal) and getting the bumpers to line up etc.. Then I saw pics of a wreck where a truck with a 4"body lift I believe, and it got slammed buy a car and it broke the cab and bed off the frame compleatly. They truck was in 3 big pieces. I was thinking about cranking up the torsion bars and get spring blocks, just 2-3" to fit 33s, maybe 35s.

cat back or header back? i had mine from the headers back. he overcharged me on the muflers, if i came with my ownt mufflers i would have saved 100$ he charged me 110 per muffler wich i later saw the same muffler at autozone for 70$ a peice. and my truck took ALOT of pipe since it is TRUE dauls.

Drop in bed liners actually offer more protection that spray in's.

I used to haul busted up concrete in my 150 sometimes.
One of the reasons I got a 250

The "ribs" on the bottom of the drop ins protect your bed from denting.
Spray in bed liners will let you dent your bed MUCH easier.

Plus it seems like the spray ins all fade.... I had the whole steel flatbed and bumper guard Rhino Lined on my F550.... I even paid $100 extra for the "uv coating".    It looked pretty faded after a yr or 2.

On my last truck I had TRUE duals also. header back with glass packs. I paid $200. if I have flowmasters it woulda been $200 more.
