Default Pypes dual conversion exhaust

I'm thinking of installing the axelback kit from pypes. Did ford put hangers under the sixers or will I need someone to weld on hangers? What is the best way to trim the back bumper? I ddin't see a tutorial or anything on the site. Any info is appreciated!

the bolt holes are there you just need a second set of hangers not sure if they come with pypes kit. If you use the ford self tappers they just bolt up.

I just did the conversion. I used a dremmel to cut the bumper, The Pypes kit from American Muscle had the hangers so that was easy. If you have any questions see my post:https://mustangforums.com/forum/4-0l...all-today.html

Ditto! If your going to do it get the X-pipe full system. IMO its the best exhaust buy out there. I didn't use the mufflers that came with the system, I had a set of Hooker Aero Chambers from my dads GT, and it sounds sick. If you just want the mufflers let me know and we can work something out.

I did the Pypes with x pipe all the way back - I also cut the bumper using a Dremel - Made a reverse stecil using tracing paper a crayon and measuring tape - turned out great - and sounds Amazing -

I have the Pypes x pipe and mid pipe too. I used two GT manual mufflers on mine and I'm satisfied for now.
In the future, I'd like to get Borla or Corsa mufflers.
