ok guys just pick up my new 05 2500 4dr sb with 3:73 and a 43re. What is the size of the muffler pipe? Will my gauges from the 02 fit this truck? Plus will 295-70-17 fit on stock 8" rims? any pics of gauges installed would be great.

He has the 48re. The muffler pipe is 4" in almost all places, no need for an exaust. First thing would be getting rid of that HUGE muffler, I ended up putting a 36" magnaflow in place of the kitty, and removing the muffler. Nearly quiet as stock, but it's a straight-through design. Gauges are universal, not sure on mounting. 315/75r17 fit on the stock 8" rim, so you shouldn't have a problem.
