    Truck failed inspection because cat too close to floor. Cheap fix?

    Right, might better to take this into an exhaust shop to have this whole system reworked. Seems more and more messed up the more I look at it.

    Truck failed inspection because cat too close to floor. Cheap fix?

    My mechanic doesn't do any welding. I have the ability to do the required cutting and welding, just not sure where exactly to cut to make this fit nicely

    Truck failed inspection because cat too close to floor. Cheap fix?

    Any advice as to where to cut/weld to lower it? The rest of the exhaust is sitting properly

    Truck failed inspection because cat too close to floor. Cheap fix?

    I agree with the mechanic, you can feel the heat thru the floor after its running for a bit, too hot to touch. With young kids in the vehicle I don't want to risk them being burnt. He gave me a list of things on the inpection that failed, rust was not one of them

My cables are not in the greatest shape, the springs on them are a little rusted which is probably why I have been having trouble pulling them back. I even bought the above...

    Can't get the E Brake cable back into the brake shoe?

    For the life of me, I cannot pull back the spring on the E Brake cable far enough to put the knob on the end of the cable into the brake shoe. Am I missing something here? Any way to loosen up the tension on this spring? 2000 C2500, 14 bolt SF

    Serious Rust Repair (floor pan replacement)

    Had fun with this one 2000 GMC C2500 When I looked at the truck, there was a dime-size rust hole in the driver floorboard. Rockers and cab corners were solid. When I got home and pulled up the carpet to fix the hole, the rest of the floor came with it: So I chopped the rest of it out...
