MattMack 1 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Does anyone know if there is a complete kit to install dual exhaust on a 2004 Granite CV713? I'm wanting to install one with the muffler, heat guard, and grab handle, just like the passenger side. Thanks in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post storkmack 764 Posted February 7 Popular Post Share Posted February 7 I’m not a dual exhaust guy at all. So what happened was this. The guy getting this truck, his father in law was our salesman, so dad told him to the SIL pick out a fancy seat and stereo. Well the SIL wanted dual pipes, so they went with plain ass seats and stereo and took the power door locks and power windows off and added the dual exhaust so the truck wouldn’t cost more. I don’t believe in putting stuff on trucks that have no purpose and needs to be replaced over the years. Not to mention it’s in the way for getting up on the deck plate. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 2,319 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Agree with this. Always like a "single stack in the back" and usually on the passenger side to stay away from the noise myself. 2 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Did he put a 12 inch shifter extension and a Texas bumper too? 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
storkmack 764 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 He quit 2 years later and wasn’t big on washing or polishing, or even showing up to work on time. We still have the truck, it is the first AI motor that we converted back to a normal ETech. She’s a beast now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fjh 775 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Yup dual exhaust is just a fashion Statement ! Not a Necessary money making item ! Want to make money keep it Simple! If you want a designer truck For looks Get your self A Pete! Just an opinion! 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGarofalo 171 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I think the other side of the coin for this is sometimes it takes a bit of “flash” to attract drivers to a company. If you rely on hiring drivers to keep your trucks moving a few bucks for accessories may mean the difference between a truck parked making no money and a truck with wheels turning. Quality drivers are still tough to come by. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
storkmack 764 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Don’t get me wrong, I want the trucks to look good. I have interviewed guys that only “drive Pete’s”, then why did you come in? If a driver is only attracted to the job by a long hood and chrome, he’s not a guy I want to hire. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Want to make money keep it Simple! If you want a designer truck For looks Get your self A Pete! Just an opinion! I've always been a dual exhaust guy, always. If it's considered a "fashion statment", then it's a statement about me and my company. I know it has it's cons, and makes no more money, but its just something I like. I wash and polish my trucks regularly and am known in my area for having some of the cleanest well taken care of older trucks. And as far as buying a Pete??

Hook n ladder 1 5 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I had bought a used CH613 with dual exhaust. Complete pain the ass. DISCLAIMER: Chicago winters not good for trucks and I haul bulk road salt. Anyway, the Y or T pipe always rotted out, the elbows always rotted out. Was replacing parts of the exhaust system every 2 years. By 2020 I couldn't get the right parts for dual exhaust....so converted back to single. It came from the factory with single exhaust. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
