if i cut it off to weld the glass pack on do i need to remove my gas tank and battery before welding or what? ive never welded on a car or truck

 

You need to pull the pipes off the down tube, andthe assembly off the truck. No way you can get the top portion with it mounted.

 

what?? haha still tryin to figure all this out lol

Find the first set of connectors toward the front of the truck that aren't welded and are forward of where you want to insert the new bits. Disconnect it, wiggle it out, cut it weld it and put it back. Might be a good idea to source some flanges so you don't have to pull all back out at some later date.

 

ill have to pull it off at the cadilik coverter i may jus replace that hole section and straight pipe it

 

Yeah something like that. Mine is stock, solid all the way to the down pipe(left hand bit in the diagram). Fortunatly it's hating colorado and rusting out, by the time I get around to it it should come off with a little kick and tug

You can make those cuts with a hacksaw once it's on the bench easy enough also, but it's usually done with the pipe cutters.

 

there is a loop thing thatholds it up so it wont sage they welded the ppipe to that and welded some of it to the muffler so gonna have to loose an inch of pipe or so no biggie haha doint that tomorrow today im cuttin my doors to put speackers in and hookin up my stereo..

 

Noooo, why ruin a door to put in a speaker just get the size that fits.

Door card 50-100$, Door 150-250. Then x2. You're hurting your resale value and offending purists Bottom line I'd never cut a door panel much less the door.

There are plenty of good 4" that will fit the factory dash speaker boxes.



And now to be helpful.. The 4runners have a pretty decent powered rear speaker setup, it's what I use in mine behind the seats. And a set of 5" fit in my dash with a little wiggling.

 

ill check out the rears lol but i like my music loud got to have door speackers

 

i decided against door speackers instead imbuildin a box thats removable
