Straight dish soap, lots of it .
Pull hard

Yup - lube and go! Should probably put the foam on the underside of the transmission cover first, unless you wanna be pulling it back off when you remove the cover

The boot proved to be no problem. Silicone and done.
Everything out and saying goodbye to my beautiful floors!

Was not unhappy with how this stuff laid out.

Got all back together

Took it out for a drive and at first was not too amazed and then I started to hear how loud the gaps were in my door and how a little whistle was actually a howl. Then took my friend for a ride and the benefits were confirmed. I can’t hear a pin drop but now I can talk hear the person in the back seat. I have reached the ‘books on tape’ ready vehicle!!

I still haven’t yet addressed the exhaust yet either. So it will be even more quiet with that accomplished. Got a strategy, but am waiting to get some mentorship before I order the bends and such. Gotta guy though, I am going to do it myself this time. That is, the aft end of the system.

So these were the steps

Sandblast
Epoxy primer
Two coats of single stage paint
Two coats of lizard skin acoustic
Two coats of lizard skin heat barrier
Linex ( do stil wish that would have been enough)
5/8ths inch foam
Finally indoor out door carpet on which a coat of Linex was sprayed on the bottom

Oh yeah, that boot on the transfer case. Can’t believe I never knew there was such a boot!!!

Feel like there some success here.

Have yet to take my other friend that said I needed an intercom system and gas mask to ride in the rig ! He will be the actual confirmation! I am hopeful!

I had made this neoprene block before, so I just kept that in addition to the newly found boot.

Bobm knows!

Any of you guys running catalytic converters?

I have heard that they cut the sink down.

I have also heard people following me in another rig say me ‘stinky’. I don’t like that!

I don't have one on my truck.

Stink is for the ____. Either love it or leave it.

So funny how incredibly sensitive everyone is now to combustion exhaust, and all these LS swap guys running cats. Man, WTF??!!
That LS is continually working to maintain the ideal air/fuel mixture which produces the best exhaust scent you’re ever going to get! Maybe tell your buddy to keep a hanky in his purse.

 

[xtiaan2000]

Sounds like you’re not running one…?

Scrapps?

Depends on state for requirement!! In NH any vehicle pre 96 is Safety Inspection only . So no test

 

[bobm]

If any engine is fine tuned it will pass hole test

Let’s start with this!
