That doesn't really fix the frame being 2" taller though.

I just want to make sure they work great with the 4 testers I have out there so far. They will be ready for sale once I get positive feedback from them. The only complaint I have had with the Upgraded Tensioner was the lack of shoulders on the pulley. This should fix the problem with the belt being able to walk off the pulley.

I am really trying to dig up as much info as i can before having my exhaust done. I have seen a LOT of setups when doing my research and that one is hands down the sweetest looking truck ehaust I have seen yet. I am looking to do something very similar but trying to figure out how to arrange the mufflers. I have a hitch on mine (which i dont see on yours) that may not allow me to install the 3rd muffler like yours. The way the 8100 series SW headers are set up is different that the others. The actual header crosses in front of the tranny pan...like so...



So my idea was to come all the way down the passenger side with dual 3" pipes and dump out in the rear on the passenger side. Just not sure at this point if i want to go with dual mufflers or a single muffler with dual 3" in/out's. What made you decide to originally go with 2 mufflers instead on a single muffler with dual in/outs? Did you ever find a way to get those codes to stop popping up?
I went with 3 mufflers for sound, or less of it, yes, turned the codes off, no more codes

What's your plan for a fuel system? Staying returnless?
