Flowmaster FX Axle Back on 2.3L

[CJ74]

I installed this a couple nights ago on my wife's badlands. It's seems just right, not too loud or quiet, no bad drone that I can hear. Also it's louder that it sounds, the phone doesn't do the best job picking it up.

Thanks for posting.

I'm very interested in this specific muffler. How hard would you rate the install @CJ74 ?

Great audio clips by the way.

You should mention if her Badlands is the 2.3 or the 2.7, please.

Edit: Shit, NVM

Sounds great! I'm gonna consider this one.

That actually sounds pretty good if it's on the 2.3.

Is this a 2.3 or 2.7? Thanks.

Nice clips, I didnt post any when I put the Borla on because it sounded nothing like real life, I agree its hard to get it with a phone.

Thanks for posting videos. I like how you can see the dual exhaust from the back. Is it really noticeable in real life? Looking for an exhaust that is visible and trying to choose between the Magnaflow, AWE, MRT, or this one. And could you tell us how long did it take you to install?

I thought it would be super easy but it was kind of a pain. 1st thing I did was slide under it on my creeper and run my head into the rear diff. Lol. It took me a little over an hour. The hardest part is trying to get the hanger bolts through the bumper without dropping them in the bumper. Why they didn't use the same hanger mounts for this muffler I'll never understand.

I see it because I know it's there but with the black tips I really don't know if other people would notice it or not with the black bumper. I think they would definitely notice it when they hear it. It took a little over an hour for me.

Thanks @CJ74 !

I took the bumper off when I put on a Rough Country Hitch. It's 8 bolts and the License Plate wiring - took like 15min. Sounds like a good step to do in order to make the install a bit easier.

You're right, I had read about other people taking it off but I wasn't sure how to do it. So, I just tied string around the end of each bolt and fished it through.

Going to do the install this afternoon - wish me luck!

Let me know how it goes and how you like it. I had a stock hanger on the bumper I could not get off. The aftermarket hanger goes in the same spot. So, I put the aftermarket one over the stock one.
