New Exhaust 00 f-250 7.3 Man 4 dr

Well I got the 4" TB and I am having a pain getting the down pipe up to the turbo. I had heard that you had to take the cross member out to do this but I called 3 shops and they said that you didn't have to. I cut about 5" off the down pipe to get it to swing in past the cross member. Guess I am asking if anyone has done this with this pick up, don't really want to hack the down pipe then weld it as it would be a pain. Any thing helps

It is a tight fit. you might try raising the front of the truck off the ground to give you more room to work with. It will open up new angles.

Lifted it up bout a foot, should have waited for my buddies car lift to get here but couldn't wait . Dumped it out right in front of the pass tire. Wow it sounds nice can't belive I waited so long to do this! Now I just have to get the intake and chip it.

Good deal!

What kinda chip are you going with. Check out Tony Wildman www.totaldieselperformance.com He tuned my rig and I really don't think there is anyone out there better than him for the 7.3's! If you talk to him tell him John Wayne sent ya!
