Ok. I have done a muffler delete and do not have my old mufflers. So I cant measure 3.5 inches from my mufflers and cut. So what measurement can I make to make the cut in the correct place. The old mufflers where cut off with around 1 inch of pipe left on them but Im not exactly positive on that though. What would be the measurement from the lower hanger under the diff to where I should make my cut??

Hopefully somebody can measure up from the tunnel brace or other landmark upstream for you. I would, but I didn't go with MRT.

Thats what I am hoping for. I mean I can cut and try it until it fits but I would be way easier with some measurement to go off of.

maybe someone on here who lives in a nice warm place can get their car on some jacks and measure for you. i would but i don't have jacks and its about -30C outside today....

Got them in. Just kinda went for it. They arent perfectly even because there was weld stopping the pipe from going on any further and that weld it hard to grind down. It wasnt giving up at all. But its on enough to get it to the welder and I like where its sitting. The other side has plenty of pipe but I wanted it on as far as I could so I can get it to the welder. So once I get it there we will match them up and burn em in.
