Hey Rich,
go with the line-X, it's a bit pricey but it was the best mod I have done so far.

Here's a site I made up (and still working on) looks like we have the same trucks (well, kinda)

all_about_power.tripod.com

clevite - do you have close up pics of your line-x bedliner? I am contemplating ditching my drop in bedliner for one of those. hate having crap get under there. But I want the bedliner to look nice too. I've seen some liners (don't know if they were spray in or paint in) that looked like absolute crap. if ya got some pics, please email me at dbassplayer@att.net. thanks.

Chris,
I went to a shop that I previously went to with on of my second car. The guy does under the table work when it comes to removing the cat. I used the shops muffler which is supposedly just like a flowmaster, (single in dual out) then that’s was custom bent and ran out to the duals. And yes I still have my spare in the original place, in fact I had a flat tire yesterday and it came out just fine.

Dan this liner is awesome, (btw.. I'm not a sales man) It looks similar to a drop in but things don't slide around at all. For those looking into Line-X I'd say before you get it done, ask the guy if you can see any of his work. Usually they have a demo you can check out.

Neil & other Line-X inquiries
The rhino is a spray in liner, the difference is the rhino has a tendency to run while it is being sprayed on. The Rhino, is supposedly a little more rubberier than the line-X but, the pattern isn't consistent, and from what I hear the material tends to run down to the bottom, so it's thinner on to and thicker at the bottom.


Hope this helps,

I'll just post the pics so everyone can check them out

Rhino liners are awesome...much better than Line-X, much thicker and very much more rubbier. Things don't slide, and it never hardens (like the Line-X). My Dad bought a Line-X about 7 yrs ago, I got a Rhino in my '90 Ford (back in '91) and mine way outlasted Dad's. His got hard, chipped and faded. Mine looked new the day I sold my truck in 2002.
