Finally took the 40 to see Buck at Boulevard Muffler in Belmont to finally get a muffler and exhaust installed. Much needed. He is an artist and a standup guy.
The OEM location is below the frame, so had him run it up inbetween the frame rails, even above the skid plates and out the DS rear corner…. Sadly a bit louder than my 60 he did, simply due to lack of real estate to fit the super long round muffler… so instead we went with the oval car one he had on hand.
Driving on rt 85 reminded me how terrifying the death wobble is…. So ordered some TREs after playing around with the excessive movement on the rods while it was up on the lift.
Btw I was pleasantly surprised after seeing the underside in all of its glory…. Yes lots of brown patina, but nothing scary and probably will clean up nicely with a wire wheel and some paint.
On the way home I treated her to a full tank of ethanol free gas… I had a huge smile the whole way home but def started to notice all the random rattles that weren’t there due to screaming loud straight pipe.
The only shiny silver part I haven’t painted with my brown glitter gun yet…
