There are two places you can go.

First time I have my exhaust done was at DAC MOTORSPORTS
501 Summit Ave 5th street 201-867-3004 ask for Tony.
Tell him Jose with the RED EXPY sent you.

Then I had an accident with a rice cooker. My exhuast was in two piece and the rice cooker front end was pretty bad.lol

DAC MOTORSPORTS was closed for vacation. So this time
I was recomend by a friend who works at the SVT FORD dealer in
Hackensack to go to Meineke in Paramus just off RT 4.
9 Forest Ave 201-368-1111 ask for Bob.
This is not your regular Meineke dealer. they do custom jobs for
the Ford SVT dealer.

Both place are good shop around good luck

Hummm, DAC does not do Mandrel bending, and their work??? I needed rubber exhaust mount (round ones Someone tried to steal the HKS exhaust) for Supra TT and they told me they trow them out and weld straight to the frame so the exhaust does not shake............

As for the Meineke, if they do Mandrel bending that's a great shop. I'll have to check on that.

The only place I found that does "mandrel bends" is in Trenton, next place is Doug's Street Shop (right in your area), almost Mandrel bends, next best thing, but is super sweet welder and on point with fabrication.

Hey Silverx


I contacted DAC they no longer have that custom machine that does the Mandrel bend. Sorry to hear that. But there work is good. Check out there prices anyway.

I guess it is the closest thing to Mandrel bend.

Good luck

Wow nice ride guys. I might get some "dubz" soon also. LOL 22s are very expensive but Iam looking at ebay. I want to get some KMC STEALTH or ARELLI ASSASSYN. They both look tight. I was just thinking, I also wanted to drop my car like 3/4 but I have air bags in the rear. The factory ones. Are they easy to remove? So far I have a few mods but my car is really in need of rims.

What's up guys...

I have been out of town so I have not been on the board recently! And thanks for the kind remarks.

With regard to the Lightning nose, I have not gotten it on yet because I am missing one last part. But hopefully right after Thanksgiving I will install it.
With regard to the lowering, yes, my Expy is lowered. However, only about 1.5 inches or so. This was done by turning down the torsion bars and adjusting the airbag sensor in the rear.
With regards to the exhaust, it is custom made. I really wanted dual rears out the back so a local shop did it for me and I love it!

Well Happy Thanksgiving and take it easy!

Robert

Only reason I would trade my Expedition for an Escalade is if I wanted to attract a whole bunch of "Chicken Head's"
