Removing my stock muffler and installing a Magnaflow muffler underneath. This is very similar to a magnaflow “rockcralwer” kit
The magnaflow has a very deep tone to it, fairly loud. It’s a tad too loud for my taste but I prefer quieter exhausts.
Very easy mod and I would recommend it to anyone, just research which muffler you want first. Thanks for watching! Be sure to Subscribe and give the video a thumbs up!

JK Gear and Gadgets Was your buddy’s ‘07 a 4Dr? My detective work looks like a Dynomax 17263. A little concerned about the “off-road use only” label it has on it. Mine is a 2Dr. I was thinking of installing a small, straight thru, muffler and I’ll delete that rear one and possibly get a muffler shop to build a dual exhaust piping out the rear.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Andrew Karl it was a 2 door as well. And don’t worry about the Offroad use only sticker. It will still pass emissions and be legal, I think they just have to put that since it’s not an OEM exhaust

@as5275 6 лет назад

JK Gear and Gadgets So far, we don’t have emissions testing, but, we do have state inspections. So, as long as I don’t delete a catalyst, I should be ok. Tomorrow I check pipe diameter and 16”s of straight section.

@victorramos6088 5 лет назад

Will this fit a 2 door jk

@xmahou 4 года назад

for removing exhaust hangers use any lube (wd40, penetrating oil etc.) and a screwdriver, get the screw driver in from the back and lay it on what looks like a penis head, from there use the screwdriver leverage along with some brute force. your welcome :) (if anyone reads this that is)

@linky13111 6 лет назад

You can weld a 45degree elbow facing down and it will help to lower the sounds aswell

@wailingalen 4 месяца назад

I'm so glad you serendipitously decided to see what it would sound sans muffler lol I was wondering as well mid video

@jodyreedy6630 6 лет назад

To remove the rubber hangers wd40 and lg channel locks comes right off just did my exhaust 2 weeks ago. Put the summit racing dynomax dual tip exhaust 125.00 shipped and i love the sound.

@EdBlack- 3 года назад

I used a crow bar. Had the muffler off in about 10min total.

@johoffman3893 5 лет назад

To keep the drone out of the cab, you should consider a hush-mat or comparable product. We installed on our JK in conjunction with a new exhaust and it helped a lot.

@chrissullivan1756 6 лет назад

I was looking for a cheap way to upgrade mu exhaust and i am doing same thing u did . Thank u for posting this video witch made me subscribe

@glennshaffer2310 5 месяцев назад

I used a 45deg and a 24in straight pipe with a tip. It's perfect. Dumps out the left side just passed the couner of the bumper. No drone sound 😊😊😊.

@michaeldickerson8470 4 года назад

I know it is too late but for anyone doing exausht work they have a tool for those rubber hangers. Its so much easier to get the rubber hangers off and if you use it more than once or twice it would be worth it

@mikecassity9563 2 года назад

I am going to do this, my factory exhaust is rattling like crazy! Thanks for the video

@s1n1stermonk35 4 года назад

Free exhaust mod just take the muffler off and call it good. Or spend $20 and add a tip to the end of the exhaust after you remove the muffler

My JK had a magnaflo muffler when I bought it, but I didn't care for the sound. I cut it off, and welded on a tail pipe. It's kind of noisy, but I like it.

@TexanUSMC8089 5 лет назад

I used dual magnaflows and high flow cats on a truck. It sounded great in town...on the highway at 65-80mph the drone was worse than a WW2 tank. I cut those mufflers off and gave them away.

@MP-sf6sc 3 года назад

Hey man not sure if anyone commented this or not yet.. For the hanger, I just used some pliers to make a space where the metal goes and sprayed some PB in it for lube. Then with a few tugs and profain words it popped right out.

@luisacevedo324 6 лет назад

I noticed when you were doing the test fit you had the muffler upside down which in turn makes the flow backwards you know what I mean hopefully you straighten it out which I'm pretty sure you did but good tip keep up the good work Buddy

@FastMatt1986 6 лет назад

I took my rubber holders off by using dish soap. Very good lubricant for that situation.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

I’ll have to try that next time

@dondavi5798 6 лет назад

Use a big set of channel locks or pliers. Much easier- put one jaw tip on the metal part of the hanger and the other jaw on the rubber bushing and squeeze. Acts like a press. Always helps to have some lubricating measure no matter what route.

@carlstanland5333 6 лет назад

Excellent video and thank you for making it! I'm planning on doing this to my 07 JKUR because my stock muffler is all smashed up and since I put the poison spyder BFH rear bumper on the stock muffler looks awful and is REALLY exposed now. I think with mine being pretty much a trail rig I'm going to go with a cheaper non name brand muffler though. Still, great video and thank you for posting it. I pretty much knew how I was gonna do it but having a visual made it so much clearer in my mind now.

@AntRocker 6 лет назад

I finally put my Magnaflow pro Friday and I was disappointed, my 3.8 had no power at all. It was like driving without a muffler, Loved the sound though. The Jeep had issues shift due to being sluggish. My friend gave her exhaust she had on her Jk 2dr before she stretched the axle, she had a shop take a bmw resonator and make a custom kit tucked up high, I installed in 15 mins and got my power back and I did have issues, lot more power and back pressure so it’s not sluggish anymore but very responsive

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

That is weird!

@fogstain 6 лет назад

I got the pypes setup. It's loud too though.

@ImSuperVince 3 года назад

Dude, you've saved me over a thousand dollars.

@scott7830 5 лет назад

I would say you have the drone sound because you moved the muffler forward under the jeep. That might be why the stock was so far back.

@JKGearandGadgets 5 лет назад

It was because the exit pipe was still under the Jeep, I added a longer tailpipe out to the rear side and no more drone

@MySt0rmy 4 года назад

your clamp is called a step clamp use on all semi trucks and they work great

@jamekingsly1586 6 лет назад

For 90$ that’s not too bad. A full kit would sound a tad better but at a muchhhh higher price

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Yeah for the price I’m happy with it

@JsGarage 5 лет назад

Magnaflow has a ton of mufflers if you want a quieter one they probably make it. Been close to chopping my exhaust off only because the muffler looks like shit and takes up space. Been waiting though because I don’t mine it being quiet. They just don’t sound very impressive to me with louder exhaust.

@Night-Owl- 5 лет назад

@matthewbarnhart5874 6 лет назад

based purely on the sound I would move that out fro under the body.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Talking about the tip?

@matthewbarnhart5874 6 лет назад

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Yep, I welded an extension on and it took out a lot of the drone and echo.

@as5275 6 лет назад

Loved it. Doesn’t look like it’ll work on an ‘08 JK. There’s a couple of angle changes that I did not see on yours. Only straight section is maybe 15” long. Muffler replacement is in my future. Need a plan.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Interesting.. I had a buddy do it on his 07 JK.

@as5275 6 лет назад

JK Gear and Gadgets I wish I could add a video to my comments. My Jeep is different at every turn. It doesn’t say Wrangler anywhere on it. Trail Rated is the only insignia on it anywhere. I’ve always assumed it was a JK.

@DeepSeaTadpole 3 года назад

Perhaps you are missing that the muffler goes under the Driver's seat (not the factory location behind the rear axle). All the turns are after the rear axle. All of that goes away when you disconnect it from above the rear axle.

@HoldenMcGroin 6 лет назад

You'll definitely get less drone if you extend it..night and day difference... I had the same issue untill I extended my pipes..

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Yep! About 2 days after I posted this video I extended the tailpipe and it made a huge difference

@blackhorsecdr 4 года назад

JK Gear and Gadgets What did you do to extend the pipe? An after market tailpipe or just added more pipe? I am planning on doing this mod sometime before end of the month.

@AKiddGDeux 3 года назад

Gonna giver a try this coming weekend!

@burntsyder 5 лет назад

Exhaust hangers... spray on wd-40 or other loose nut. Use a prybar and they come right off. Your muffler is on backwards. I doubt it changes anything on that type of muffler though. Pretty straight through

@JKGearandGadgets 5 лет назад

I tried that! These Jk hangers are no joke haha. And yeah this muffler will go on either way

@btyme80 6 лет назад

This will work with the 4 door but the straight section on a 2 door is too short. I tried it tonight on mine. Might try making a downspout like the high clearance kit

@gerpto 6 лет назад

A big pair of channel locks and any spray lube like WD will get those rubber hanger mounts off lickity split. I've struggled in the past as well but learning the trick will prevent from having to replace them. Cool vid tho, nice ride.

@ryantepley3662 6 лет назад

I have a really dumb question, did you disconnect your battery for this magnaflow install? I have seen a couple youtube videos where guys are disconnecting, but I didn't think you did that in your video. Is it necessary....I wouldn't think so, but just double checking before I copy your exact mod! Thanks for this video by the way, I am stoked to get it done this weekend!

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Nope no reason to! Most manufactures include that in directions just for liability purposes in case you cut a wire or something during install. Your fine with it on. “Insert liability notice” Jk gear and gadgets will not be liable for any damage, death or other causes due to not removing the battery terminals. 😂

@lesliezavala4223 6 лет назад

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Yeah the ones I used worked well, you do need to tighten them down real well. You could even use the cheaper u bolt style clamps too since the muffler slides over the factory exhaust

@AZWESTSIDEWHEELERS 6 лет назад

Great video. Very nice upgrade been thinking about doing this. Any issues after the video with the system?

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

No issues! I would reccomend extending the tailpipe to the rear bumper to avoid it from droning. If you leave it cut off above the axle it will have a loud drone!

@AZWESTSIDEWHEELERS 6 лет назад

JK Gear and Gadgets Sure appreciate the info we do a lot of rock crawling and wouldn’t really want to add more pipe than what you have do you think an exhaust tip pointed down would elevate most of the droning?.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

If you weld on a pipe with a bend it will be tucked up high, higher than the stock muffler and have it come out to the side near the driver rear corner

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

Even if you point it down it will drone.

@AZWESTSIDEWHEELERS 6 лет назад

JK Gear and Gadgets I appreciate the input.

@bscotteggers5413 6 лет назад

Any reason you couldn't install a hanger and cut off the pipe before the rear axle and put a tip on to angle it down? Although where you have it ending up high would give you a bit of water clearance. Hmmm

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

You could!! However I had my exhaust setup like you said on my first XJ many years ago, and when I wasn’t moving I would smell the exhaust. But then again the XJ always smelled like exhaust lol

@bscotteggers5413 6 лет назад

Does Magnaflow have an option like this that is quieter as well? I'm more interested in hearing my stereo than I am the exhaust but I also hate the gigantic stock exhaust.

@JKGearandGadgets 6 лет назад

I’m honestly not too sure. I just know you want to find a muffler that is a straight pass and similar length as this one. Maybe a local muffler shop would have some good ideas for quieter mufflers. But I would say dynomax, if they have a similar one like this. Dynomax is usually less loud than magnaflow
