6 inch stack and plenty of drone; Help!

I put a 6 inch chrome stack on the truck this weekend. Sounds great and smokes plenty! I drive about a thousand miles a week and the drone is getting annoying. Anyone got a solution? Is there such a thing as a drop in muffler for a stack? I thought I read about one but my search brought up nothing.
Thanks

Yeah, just add on a muffler, just keep your flexpipe in-line if you have any. Mine's terrible too at 70-75mph, but I don't care.

I haven't seen that before, but a regular muffler or performance muffler will rid it of the drone(and more).

What about getting as resonator for a mega and putting on it without any muffler? I rode in 53Willys his is set up like this. It sounds way deeper than my cat delete and a 4" straight through muffler.

Getcha a little 9-10'in donaldson resonator and problem solved. You will still have a good tone/sound, but the drone will be gone.

My purse...I know, I know. It was really cool, for like the first 300 miles or so, then it got really really old. Thanks for the help, I think I'll try the 10" donaldson to tame the drone a bit.

I believe grand rock pipes makes a muffler that slides inside the stack. Is the pipe touching your bed anywhere. If you don't have proper cleareance you will get some drone coming throught the body panels.

I loved it with my 4" stock pipe but with the new 5" pipe and 7" stack and gutted cat it is too loud for me...I wanted to use the mega cab resonator but I don't think it would work with my 5" pipe.
if you have stock 4" pipe then I would try a mega cab resonator..I loved mine with that set-up
