cutting tips off?

[dcZ71]

Been thinking about maybe cutting my tips off for a cleaner look and maybe reduce some noise and drone? It sounds pretty deep right now only claps in the high rpms, i dont want to really lose the sound i have or the deepness?

yea i dont even know i can keep the tips when i lift it so i might just have to get out the sawzall and live with it

Why would you have to lose the tips lifting it? This is my favorite exhaust set up so I vote keep em.

I dunno theyre tight in there near the leaf springs and shock and everything. I might be ok though because they are only 18" long. ive just heard of this happening to people, not sure honestly.

Maybe ill leave for now just need a good cleaning to re energize me on them., they just get dirty quick and i havent cleaned the truck in 2 months with being at school.

I think maybe the lift will complement them good theyre pretty big 4x18's so they need a meaty tire next to them

Lift in the rear= blocks and the shocks shouldn't really move that much so I think you would be fine.

cutting tips off would cause more drone.

thought the big tips creating that echoing effect?

could be, but i say its either gonna get worse or stay the same without the tips.

yea probably wouldnt do much


the glasspacks are wearing out though and its starting to sound white trash in the high rpms if you know what i mean


i still love the sound though
