Its just the glass pack sound, they sort of rattle or crackle when you let up. The mufflers are only a foot long, one on each side.

Yeah you can see where it rubbed the gas tank, I had to readjust it a little and those mufflers are small. Not much room under there for 2 mufflers

Sounds good John. So i'm guessing everything is done on that truck now? Just out of curiosity how much do you usually sell your trucks for?

Thanks. It depends on the truck but its always below book. I always have clean titles and I drive em for a while and get all the bugs worked out. No CEL, abs or air bag lights. Fresh oil, cold air, good brakes...no real problems. The last big project was a 99. Sold on ebay for 4000 to a guy in indiana, after driving it home he called to tell me how much he loved the truck. Thought that was cool. Here's a picture of it.
