How was the install? fit tight? You have the Slee skids? Any interference?

Pulled out some old discs and callipers from "the spares box.

Kurt the install was fairly painless.. The hardest and most time consuming portion was removing the factory cat-back after around 160k miles.. =]

The new system went on great, all the pipes and new 10 grade hardware was supplied. The only thing needed is two new Toyota OE gaskets for the mids to catback juncture. The DT instructions stated to reuse.. =/

I do not have all the Slee skids (yet). To my understanding regarding aftermarket for our hundreds its either this DT, Borla, or back to OE Yota. The borla was more expensive, had a much less desirable exit point and I don't believe works with the Slee skids, and I wasnt forking over the $ for OE. The DT is "supposed" to work with full Slee skids but can't comment on actual experience as far as that one goes.

I have one clamp where the front drivers portion meets the front of the muffler where there is a small exhaust leak. I need to try another clamp or have it welded. Not the end of the world but not ideal.

Otherwise she fit great, sounds great, (although she at times is a touch loud for my liking) and I absolutely love love the high clearance rear exit. Absolutely perfect of that account.

Only time will tell, but I'm very pleased for the sub 5 bills shipped.. The old girl definitely gained a little "pick me up" with the larger diameter pipe.

Started the Desmog project on the 62 today. Got it all tore down and put back together, with the exception of plugging the 4 air injector holes (waiting for the thread seal to arrive)

Should have it buttoned up tomorrow late. I guess we will see how it turns out. I took the valve cover off and don't have an extra gasket. The original didn't tear so I'm hoping it works out...

Next is the drop the tranny and transfer case fluid and replace it with Redline.

Do you have a write up on this? Did it make any difference? Thanks.

Turned my OBA drain port into a Nerf gun (boredom makes you do silly things)

just changed both diffs oil and transfer and gearbox oils also, fixed air leak in front air locker line, blew out all the oil from front and back air locker lines, handbrake adjusted so it works again, and all wheel bearings checked and repacked ready for an upcoming 6 week touring trip to that foreign country at the bottom of Australia called Tasmania. Just need to install my new to me (secondhand but good as new) PWR radiator, rebuild the Warn winch, change engine oil and fuel, air and oil filters...and i'll be ready to hit the frog and toad.

Were the sway bar links stock length? I just put some new ones on too. What a difference!! I havent been able to find a set of extended length links.

Took her on a little road trip to the 2014 Appalachain Rendzevous.... Saw some other sweet Cruisers there, too!

Also installed wheel spacers and Slee Group 31 battery tray. ....now I just have to move the solar charge controller so I can fit the battery in there.....

 

[landsharkman]

added IBS dual battery setup with dedicated line to fridge

and Slee skid plates and welded the sliders to the frame
