    Make it quiet. Lower decibel level M809

    I added a padded floor mat on the entire cab floor. It didn't help much with the sound but hopefully eith keeping the heat in this winter. I finally put a muffler on. Fit it in the mirror brackets. That made a noticeable difference in sound. Jones 5050xl A couple peterbilt clamps and poly...

    Ok thanks. The video is not that great anyway! That was my first time playing with my dash cam and trying to post video. I'll figure out how to embed the next video. I'm hoping to get my truck under 90 db

    I didn't think I could fit a full muffler in the mirror bracket. That sure opens up some more options. That's a nice install.

    Make it quiet. Lower decibel level M809

    I have a soft top. It's insulated but it needs replaced. The fabric of it has gotten thin and is getting harder to repair. There isn't much room for the exhaust to go under the truck but I'm not counting that out yet. I ordered some 80 mil noico, like dynamat. After I set some baseline numbers...

    Make it quiet. Lower decibel level M809

    It's never going to be quiet but it needs to be quieter. I have added a turbo and Jakes to my M818. The muffler was removed to make room for the turbo. The exhaust is straight through. I've had it this way almost 2 years. I got a decibel meter to see how load it really is. I played with it...
