So what’s the go with the newer model truck having a Detroit? I’m Australian so I don’t know much about the emissions laws you guys have in America lol I’m just really curious

This truck is a Glider Kit, basically a glider kit is a brand new truck without an engine, transmission, or rear ends. We bought it from a company that puts the older, rebuilt pre-emmision engines and transmissions in them. Its a way to get around the emission laws since the laws go by the year of the engine, not the truck for rigs in the US.

I run a 25 inch resonator loud but enjoyable loud i tried straight pipe my ear drums were hurting after a day. I run Rockies mostly and running straight pipe Jakes at 1700 rpm for 15 mins makes your ears bleed

I'd rather the muffler.

What muffler were you running?

@DrtyDiesel

Just a standard 10” straight through muffler. I think it was by Donaldson maybe?

Was it even quieter with the muffler

It was a little, but the biggest difference was the jake brake. Which was much quieter with the muffler vs without.

@DrtyDiesel our truck is straight piped and we were thinking of putting a small performance muffler on it to quiet it down. We do long haul so it's pretty irritating. Did it make a difference in the cab with the muffler on? In terms of drone

No I'm a company driver right now, wanting to be an owner operator though. Local fuel hauling is definitely what i prefer, its a fairly easy job with good pay and home every night.

Is the muffler the dpf?

Not on this truck, it's a pre-emissions engine so no dpf needed. On mine it's just a regular muffler

Most definitely no muffler
