Good luck with it, just doesn't look as good IMO.

 

45'd FTW! Leave the straight back to the muscle cars

 

I toe a 21' boat with no issues, just curious why you dont like them or what issues you have when toeing?

 

my neighbor has your truck with 45's it looks good

 

I'll gladly detail my tips just to have them 45'ed. Molded mud slash guards ( not cheap tacky rubber mud flaps ) is always an option to help keep them cleaner but in all reality road debris such as tar and water stains with chemicals can still get them dirty underneith and usually half way up the sides. I also prefer having the sound of the exhaust guided towards the sides so it echos off the buildings a little more and doesn't **** off the guy behind you much when your fumes blow into his a/c ( I hate that very much ).

 

Straight out looks good, but not on 4x4's. If you do a lot of off roading then the rear exit could end up getting pinched between the bumper and the ground if you go over some steep terrain.

 

yea I'll get some this weekend.

 

It is a crying shame to put them straight out the back... the 5.0s sound so good. you cant hear them out the back. I tow all the time, managed to break half ton springs and upgraded to 3/4 ton springs. but when its all loaded up it sounds awesome! I will never do exhaust straight out the back. Just need some good mudflaps, then its no problem

 

hmmmm, i think i may end up doin 45's and just takin the time to clean em

 

Mine are straight out the back with 18" 3.5" tips on 2.5" piping..

As far as towing is concerned.. unless your driving a diesel or your truck is smoking.. I can't imagine there would be much of a difference with 45s or straights.

I guess it's really just a personal preference, but I like them straight out the back.. I don't imagine there would be much of a difference in sound.. it's pretty much all about looks.

 

i have a freidn w/ a ram with dual 40 flows out the back and you can tell they are there, but i have 2 friends w/ super 40 flows 45'd and they are noticeably louder on the inside

 

well I got the pictures. forgot the cord to transfer them to computer so they are in the works. I left the cord in that 1996 f150 lol. My buddy is borrowing it but he will get it too me so they are coming lol

 

every one posted out the back pics wheres the 45% tips
and dude on a 4x4 you gonna use it off road than 45 or dump cuz out the back really suck if you have to cut them off just to get it home i have had to do that when i came down on a rock and smashed the tips flat

 

Some kind of rock or hazard off-roading could damage a 45'd degree tip set up just as equally as the chances are with a straight out tip. One isn't safer than the other.

 

well true but less 45 have Ben damaged compared to straight
