Re: Sound Deadening and Engine Noise

Any exhaust that exits under the truck is going to drone.

These trucks are also just plain noisy. They are a tractor, with a cab.

I'd love to see your truck in person though!

its a side exit under the stepside step on the passenger side. I kinds figured they are old trucks, and not going to be super quiet, but i think there is room for improvement lol, already added 1000lbs to the weight of the truck vs Original weight. a bit more sound deadening cant hurt anymore.

Its a love or hate thing i find, some dont like my solutions to problems, but i wanted a unique daily thats fast and easy to drive. got that, few minor quality of life stuff upgrades tonmake, such as power steering getting a upgrade and noise reduction in the cab. If you spot my truck anywhere come talk, i dig your youtube channel!, my truck is easy to spot due to liberal use of hole saws, sawzalls and a welder. ��
