OK, i'll cut the muffler itself off with my sawzall, then i'll use a dremel to separate the outer pipe from the catback pipe.

Bytes brought this to my attention in another thread. Thought you might want to find one Darrell.

Be a great Christmas present for a little son or grandson.

I've seen those at my wally world but no grandson. Both daughters are married and in their 30's so I doubt if I'll be come a grandfather. It's not in their plans.

Rained hard here today and as I was getting in to my truck I saw water dripping from the back of the headliner. 12 hour midnight shift than a 8am appointment at my dealer, it ain't going to be pretty.

So it's coming through the third brake light gasket?

I need to check mine. It hasn't rained lately but it's raining now.

Check up by your headliner to see if its wet, probably not. Mine has been replaced already once as one of the LED's burned out. So it had been fixed once by the same dealer. The same dealer who ordered it right the 1st time but not the 2nd. I looked the part up on a Ford parts site and the standard one is about $150, the SVT one is over $300. Something to do with having Hill desend mode or not, which all Raptor's have.

At least you didnt snap a ball joint tonight, ugh, what a night.

It is my fault, I knew something wasnt right for a while, but all parts were tight, so I let it go.
I only paid 500 for the car so I figured drive it until the wheels fall off.
Well guess what, 1 just about did, LOL.

Here is to a new ball joint, possible axle, and maybe a strut if it is bent.

lol, ya, just a little. Just a mile previously I was doing 70 mph down the expressway!
now that would have been a story to tell if I survived.

It is fixed already. 143 tow, 75 in parts, 1 new axle and ball joint, good as new.........or until the other side falls apart

There's no deepness to them at all.

Strangely enough though, my car feels like it has more power with them.

I'm guessing that his wannabe mob ties couldn't keep him out of trouble huh. Doesn't work like that for the sopranos.
