Default What size glasspack

I have a 2005 f150 5.4 supercrew with a short bed. What size glasspack do I need? I don't want my exhaust to be cut short like some. I want to put a tip on my exhaust, any idea what size glasspack I need. (Inlet and Outlet diameter is what I am talking about)

Yeah, thats the diameter of the exhaust. I am not a pro at this, what length? Could you possibly post a link to one that would fit? As I said in the main post, I still want to be able to put an exhaust tip on the end of my exhaust to make it look cooler.

Note: Before anybody says anything, yes I am eventually getting a dual exhaust, this is just a whole lot cheaper as of right now...

I would just have the muffler shop cut and weld the pipe after the glasspack to fit like you want it to, and have them put the tip on at the same time.

Yeah, I think I'm going to get someone to put it on for me. I haven't yet decided what tip I want to do, I haven't decided chrome or black and whatever color I do, I need go stay with whenever I get rims. Also, the tip just bolts on with a bolt, you just mount it on.

Order a 18" length from Jegs. You can make up any length with pipe from the parts store. I have a pipe welded from the y-pipe, to a Cherrybomb glasspack, with some more pipe that I welded to the stock tailpipe. Much of the straight pipe is factory that I've cut and welded to fit, I butt-welded most of it. Once situated where I wanted it to be, I took some 5/8" round stock, heated it cherry-red, and beat it to 90* to serve as new hangers, put them in to the factory rubber mounts, welded them to the pipe where they met, and trimmed the excess. Easy-peasy. I'd like a spilt to duals either out behind the tires or straight out the back, but this is a 15 year old truck and I can't see dumping too much money into "wants" when it has enough "needs."
