Don't cut your tip any shorter, it's not worth it. What happens when they're too short is the steam from your exhaust on those cold fall thru spring days will linger on the inside of the truck box and bumper and cause the sheetmetal to rust prematurely. Axle dumps and not letting the exhaust escape from underneath your vehicle are not good ideas.

Collector reducers $31
Cooper Collector gaskets 2X 9.95 = 19.98
2.5 j-bends 2X 19.95 = 39.90
3.0 U-bends 2X 24.95 = 49.90
2.5 X 4ft pipe 11.96
3.0 X 4ft 15ish
O2 sensor bungs 3X 5.95 = 17.85
Weld on flanges 2X 6.95 = 13.90
Exhaust hanger 2.00

Soo roughly $200

I bought them from KB, which I think he bought them from you.. If so were the O2 sensor bungs always crap? I ended up welding in new ones cause the orginal ones started to screw up the threads on the O2 sensors....
