Re: Rentedmule's 03 sonoma

I've been away with work for a month and still managed to score a used rollpan for $10 less than 12hrs after I got home! It's not in perfect shape but I'm poor and wouldn't have paid much more for a better one.



The truck is going in for an alignment to straighten the steering wheel out tomorrow so I'm having them install the SLP y-pipe at the same time. Hopefully it'll bolt right up but I gave them free reign to do what they have to do to make it fit. From what I've read they may have to drill out the flange bolts a bit at the least or cut it and patch in a section if it's way off. I'm getting the precat cut off at the same time. The same shop built my exhaust and I trust the guy so we'll see what he does with it!

Re: Rentedmule's 03 sonoma

Exactly!

Got the alignment done and the tech said it was a pain to get the steering wheel lined up with the quick ratio box. It's close enough and doesn't pull left anymore so I'm happy.

The SLP y-pipe went on with barely a hitch! They had to drill out the holes on the flanges but that's it. That was pointed out in these threads and I gave the shop a heads up so it wasn't an issue.

It sounds significantly louder and a bit more "raw" if that makes sense.

I didn't get a chance to wring it out yet but I didn't notice anything on the low end. It seemed to pull harder after about 2500 rpms but I'll know better at the next auto-X.

Re: Rentedmule's 03 sonoma

What year did they install precats on 4.3s? I saw the one on Rentedmule's y pipe, and last week when I got my hollowed cat put in, I'm sure I didn't have a liltle precat like the one on Mule's y pipe. Is this on 2000 and newer models?

P.S it sounds really good. IMO I think you need a slp loudmouth 2 to finish it off.
