Might just have to put the oem plugs in and see if things get any better. It doesn't help that my new exhaust has some serious leaks.

Not an f150, but I converted my crown Victoria LX single to dual exhaust. The total system costed a whole $26 and it came from a junkyard police interceptor lol. I can feel the difference in power too, well i guess it added 20 hp And yes only $26 for the piping and the 2 mufflers, thanks Pic-A-Part!

Washed mine yesterday. And I'm thinking about going through the whole cab and sound deadening and fixing all the little squeaks and rattles. I put a kicker L5 behind the seat the other day and I think it's loosened up a few screws here and there.

Parked it. Last night I figured out the exhaust leak. Replacement bolt was out of threads could not tightene down any more. Once I cut it off it was so loud and obnaxous. I couldnt stand the noise or fumes so I parked it for today.

Got new rubbers all around Stock size, and not "the best" (Wranglers) but much better than the slicks I had

I drove to the store and bought a RockStar. Got back, parked, and noticed my front rims are covered in break dust.
Yup..
