I've been wanting to put a new muffler on the KJ now that I finally got the lift one. I just want something that gives it some growl.....not something that makes it sound like a pissed off 5hp Briggs and Stratton. What mufflers is everybody running? Thanks LR |

![]() ![]() I got it for the off road ready factor and not the sound. The sound was a bonus. |

Look up Thrush Mufflers, enexpensive. You'll need 2.50'' Offset Inlet/ Center Outlet |

How much cheaper are the flopro and the thrush than the flowmaster? I am a broke college kid so I'm looking for the best deal, haha. |

![]() Don't expect it to stay all pretty and black like that. At least it didn't for me with all the road salt in Michigan. You're most likely not have a problem with that living in Reno. |

Yeah didn't think of that, but that won't deter me. I'll have to spray on a protectant. |

Plus it doesn't matter the Flowmaster 44 will crush just as easy as any muffler if bashed on a rock,that fancy diamond plate is no stronger then what others are made out off(just costs more).Better to get a cheap one so your not out to much when you do crush it,I learned this the hard way to the tune of $600(had the Borla catback on). |

^^^^^ Nope^^^^^ It is way tougher. Yes it costs more, around $100 now, I got it for around $85 or so, but it is worth the extra cash. I drug it, smashed it and crunched it on the boulders out on Slick Rock trail a few weeks ago and not even a dent. Yes it isn't as pretty as it was, scrapes and what not, but not dents or anything. I know a regular muffler wouldn't have faired so well. I think we use sand instead of salt in the winters here in Reno. So yeah, I am not concerned about that but like Crossbones said, spray on protection. |

Aero turbine exhaust. http://www.aeroexhaust.com/ i know, the thing looks like a cheap tuner mod but it's not. Had mine for two years now. Love the sound, did see performance gain, and the thing is bullet proof (solid and i mean solid). Hit hard enough you'll dent even your skidplates. Still 2 seasons of pretty good wheelin' produced plenty of scrapes, no dents. |

I was thinking the areo was pretty tall, meaning that it hung lower and decreased clearance. True or False? |
