The kits from whitney were in the book 30 yrs ago! You could always put on the duels and run up and down small rural roads at 75mph and pretend to be a Farmer headed to the coffee shop!;missingteeth;
 
LOL. Well I just like the sound of true duals. Magnaflow makes a good true dual system. I hate gibson personally. No pun intended for fellow members that have gibson
 
I like the sound of no cats and glasspacks. I also like duals because it makes the car/truck look more symetrical.
 
Why Duels?


They just plain look cool.

I prefer true duals as they sound better... and you don't get the poser smoke out of one pipe when you take off in cold weather. Y-pipe exhausts favor one side, so when it is cold it becomes plainly obvious which one it is.
 
I don't like they way any tail pipe set up looks on a truck, well except on Lightnings. But thats why I cut mine right before it makes the last 90* bend and painted the rest of it flat black.

I do like the the sound and look of my Dad's Cobra though, Crower 2 cams, no cats through dual Magnaflows and it ends with 4" tips on each side, then the blower wine..... I get a little chub every time I hear that car fire up.

you do realize the original post was about TIRES right?

well, it decreases the pressure on the surface you are driving on having 4 tires in back, which would help in some situations, but using the JC Whitney kit is worse on the bearings than having true duals that have the center of both of the wheels near the bearings...

it's just the choice of who owns the truck, some like them lowered, some like them lifted, some like them stock, some like them odd... it keeps the country how it was...

If that is true. Then I missed something somewhere. and apparently so did everyone else up until you. O well.

It could go either way, JC-Whittney has had kits for both dual rear wheels and dual exhaust for a long time.
 
the farmer comment sounds more like dual wheels than exhaust to me...
