Had mine, a Gibson cat-back, installed for $60. It took about an hour to remove the stock and install the Gibson.

I have the gibson kit on my 97 Expedition. I have a 4 " lift so....I do go off road. It has held up well. But I was NOT happy with the sound. I felt it was to quiet!! On the other hand it is a matter of sound preference. This is my second truck with gibson on it and both have seen many miles of road..... good luck

Thumbs up

After reading these testimonies, I put one on my truck this past week. A local Midas shop installed it for about $60(us) in about an hour. I've found the above accounts to be true. Sound is not much more than stock. I feel the added torque in 2nd gear and on hills, I don't have to push the right foot down like I use to. I have yet to tow anything though.

I still can't find any Liebnitz road maps, who sells them
