Bassani Off-Road Pipes simple bolt on?

bolt right up and very simple. You might have to cut the stockers to get them out or take off your tranny crossmember.
Sounds easy.... ;-)
Having a lift and the disposal of all the tools in a giant Dodge dealership should help a little right? lol 
Thank god my friend went to school to be a mechanic, reminds me I owe him a beer or three.
The hardest part at this point will hopefully be trying to get my truck on the lift. It always eats up the first hour we're working on it.
Oh and the only reason I ask about if this is bolt on our not, is that the picture on LFPs site shows the offroad pipes only having one pipe where it meets the catback, I was kind of thrown off. :lol:

Only issue I had with my whole Bassani system(still stock headers), no cats, off road X Pipe, was the damn traction bars. the pipe is bent in a way that it hits right where my traction bars were. So I had to remove them until I can get a custom pipe bent.
I did mine in the driveway on ramps. I did take off the tranny crossmember after seeing lots of posts about how much easier it would be. Went pretty quick from what I remember.
shaggy what kind of traction bars?
Take the extra step to remove the crossmember, this way you can remove the factory mid-pipe entact, and it'll be easier to re-sell.
You don't need any gaskets or extra junk- it's a fairly easy swap since you have lift access.
If you find the Silverbullet is mated really well to the mid-pipe, use a ratchet strap to pull it off. Wrap the strap so it makes a loop around the axle and cat back and connect the hooks together, then ratchet carefully...

I wish I would have taped the 3 guys doing a circle jerk trying to install them. 1 had the torch, the other guy had the sawzall and the other was in the way.
The most trouble they had was installing 1 of the 02 sensors.
