Nice! How does it drive?
Let's talk about that exhaust in the first set of photos. What's going onthere! I like it!

Drives great
Still gotta center the steering wheel as it's off about an inch, but can't find my tie rod tool set and don't wanna mangle the drag link with a pipe wrench
With the added travel, I was able to hit 30mph on the beach with ease (only 10mph tops previously)
Replaced the muffler last week and didn't want a tailpipe, so I just hacked the output pipe and made it a turn down using an adapter sleeve and a couple of clamps

What exhaust is that and how does it sound? There's stuff rattling around inside my LX's muffler and it's starting to annoy me.

It's a typical Bosal replacement, however, I've had a few of these and this one seems to be of much better quality than the previous ones
There are slight differences and fitment was actually very good this time around
It's tight and doesn't rattle (for now), but only time will tell
On the others, the brackets were in the wring place and I had to cut and weld for it to line up

How does it sound compared to the stock muffler?

Nothing is as quiet as stock, but it's pretty quiet.
No whistle though (I actually miss that)

I like the whistle too.
Great thread with lots of good info! Blew an airbag at some point and just ordered new. Didn't know or try to get replacement from Airlift.
My OME 2" heavy is old and probably a good 10-15 years old and needs replacing. Like you I have a lot of weight in the truck. Have liked the OME and leaning toward the J setup for the weight.

The while haunts my dreams. You can only pretend its turbo whine for so long.
@98 SNAKE EATER can you please give us a one year review on your lift? Do you still like it? Knowing what you know now would you do anything differently?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Drives and handles great
Still haven't gotten around to adjusting the drag link, so the steering wheel is off center by half an inch or so, but other than that, no issues at all
Wouldn't change a thing
Thanks!
