Post Sound dampening for back of cab?

Recently undercoated my 99 SC and noticed a drastic improvement in noise reduction. Still have some exhaust sound that I would like to minimize. I'm thinking that most of it comes through the baffles in the rear of the cab, but was wondering if Dynamat or similar product could help.

Has anyone done any dampening on the floor and rear of the cab? If so, what product (s) did you use? Thanks

Yes Dynomat will help,but buy the Dynomat Super,its 3times thicker than regular,also you will want to do the whole back wall and under the rear seat overlap the sheets slightly,Oh and you get a better deal buying the bigger sheets!

Question

What about the baffles on the back of the cab, cover the area, or cut around? thanks

I went to a stereo shop and they recommended a product that consists of a thin layer of lead covered by padding on both sides. I don't remember the name of it, but you could call around and find out. It's supposed to be really good for the floor of your truck.

Cool

Do you have any pics of the under coating?
Also was it hard, and how long did it take?

I'll try to get some pics up this weekend. I put on several coats, all together maybe 2 hours of time. Extremely easy.

No offense to anyone here, but even my wife noticed the difference!
