Early 98's had the 12v, late 98's had the 24v.

the very rear rear I took a 4in grinder and cut out the jhook part left it welded to the frame when we put the MBRP in place we just bent the Jhook around it and welded it place figure it was already there why not use it? or else you'll need to buy one or fab one but i would do what it did its quick and real easy no muss no fuss. oh another thing is it does get real tight at the fire wall but it will fit overall it is a bolt right up kinda thing reall eas I had mine from pull into shop to drive home me and buddy was just about 2hrs

That's about how long it took me and our mechanic, and we took a lunch and did some other stuff while it was up there. I undercoated the whole thing, cleaned a bunch of stuff. We had a lift though, and that helps a ton.

I agree with you. I have straight and I hear the turbo and motor more than exhaust noise. my neighbors like it too.

If you haven't ordered it yet, you can buy one off ebay for $250 including shipping.

Have not placed my oreder yet. Do you guys know anything thing bad about GlowShift Gauges, Or are they pretty good? I am looking at cost cutting on the exhaust by not geting a tip just reusing the one I have. and not getting the hanger I feel like I can figure something out for that. and just getting the straight pipe 276$ then looking at a single gauge. EGT Glowshift they also have a 3in1 style. Just woundering if any one has this brand and there worth it?

Don't try to save money when it comes to an instrument that can save your engine. Glowshift gauges are not a quality piece and have been reported several times to be very inaccurate.

Saving money on an exhaust system is fine but don't do it with a vital gauge, get an Autometer gauge or my recommendation an Isspro gauge.

Some people swear by glowshifts but they have probably never had a good gauge to compare it to. The guy that i bought my truck from had a set in it already and they are junk. Get a set of ISSPRO's and be done and not have to keep replacing crappy gauges.

Copy on the gauges. Well happy and stoked to say I ordered my exhaust and tip and hanger. I took a look and my truck is stock other than cold air and soon to have a straight pipe. so I have no real need for gauges as of yet. Plus by not getting them now I can save up for the good ones. Thanks guys for all your help and great input.
