Dodge Durango Forum II

Why there are no "true" straight pipes, and answers to your other inquiries...

If you crawl under the Durango, you can see wherer the pipe has to bend to clear various obstacles (transfer case, oil pan, gas tank...). If you wanted a true straight pipe you'd have to go below all that stuff...putting the exhaust below the framerails. That's just asking to be ripped out by rocks, bumps, and road irregularities...especially with a 3/3 drop. If you want to go with a 3.5" or 4" system (for whatever reason)...then that'd multiply the problem even further. By the way I have a Flowmaster 40 Series. It isn't that loud from the outside especially compared with my buddie's Mustang. If you want Pro-Stock (NHRA) loud then go with free flow headers and a Flowmaster 1 chamber muffler. It's available in Summit...so take a look. It may be just what you're looking for.

I don't know about the windshield wiper or the other stuff. I just have one question...why do want the single winshield wiper? Any experience I've had with them (Jaguar XJ6, Mercedes), they aren't as good as the two wiper ones...especially in snow/hard rain. Just curious...

Chrome plastic door handles...I got them in my 2K Durango SLT+...you may want to talk to a delership or check that junk car site for handles, they may have a set.

Have fun customizing!
