I finally got my new exhaust on yesterday. I attempted to do the job myself, but ended up taking it to an exhaust shop to be welded. I went with a Walker 18251 SoundFX muffler (21" can, 2" in/out) and a 2" direct fit walker tailpipe section. Because I already had a custom flowmaster 2 1/2" dual exhaust, the walker wasn't a direct fit, but that's not Walker's fault.
The truck is factory quiet again, and with the new Denso O2 sensor no more fuel / exhaust smell. Unfortunately being able to drive the truck uncovered a new problem. The clutch, which releases at the top of it's throw, is slipping under heavy load. I adjusted it the pedal per FSM, bled the slave cylinder and replaced the clutch master. Still slips. So today I ordered a new Aisin clutch kit and Sachs flywheel. On the plus side, my final BFG tire showed up today, so I should pics with the new tires / wheels up today. I hope.
Another positive was I sold all the components from the 90s/2000s stereo that came in the truck for $490 on eBay. Turns out the Phoenix Gold Amp is a collectors item now, same for the Eclipse EQ.
