I have an 05 lariat screw wtih a 5.4 in it. Can I just replace the stock muffler with an aftermarket muffler to give it a little tougher sound?

Thanks,
Jaybee

 

Yes

Replaced my stock with a Flowmaster SUV 50 on my previous truck. Sounded great outside with little or no noise inside.

 

Yes, but the new muffler might be a little shorter so you might need to add some pipe.

 

Is there one that will just bolt in without having to add pipe?

 

i highly dought it with how huge our mufflers are

 

flowmaster 40 on mine, i love it.I wanted a tougher sound too, just take it down to a muffler shop. they wont charge you much to run the pipe.

 

I had a Flowmaster installed in place of the stock muffler.

 

Yes you can, and you can also add a tip..

 

That little extra stub of pipe is beans compared to the price of the aftermarket muffler. Just go snag some scrap from a muffler shop.

 

I had a Magnaflow 14" installed at a local muffler shop with a Magnaflow SS tip for $200 if I remember right. All welded with a 14 day satisfaction guarantee. Very nice tone, no cab noise, but wish it was a tad louder SOMETIMES..

 

i have a flowmaster super 40 and i just dumped it. It sounds awesome i recomemd it. I think the whole thing from the muffler shop cost me $114 bucks.

 

Its 2 1/2 inch stock piping? Isnt it?

 

My 5.4L is 3" stock pipe and I had a magnaflow welded in for $150.00 at local muffler shop and it sounds great.
