do u want a loud exhaust or quiet one or in the middle.

i got single in and dual out 40 series flowmasters on mine and it sounds loud and deep.

i would like loud and deep but i only have a 4.0 v6. will it have the same affect as a v8? and where can i find this 40 series at? is it bolt on? does it fit the same as stock muffler from cat to right rear tire exit? does all the correct hardware come with it and no welding included? sorry for all the questions but the are the questions i need answered.

is that how you want urs to be. i like the 40 series cause it sounds louder and deeper previous owners of my sport had the 70 series flows and it sounded to quiet for me.

i love my 40 series flows but i am going to save up to do true dual exhaust

ok so where did you get these 40 series from? was it bolt on or was there some welding you had to do? where did the kit start from the cat to back or was it oem side entry? it this compatible with the 01 sport trac? where can i find this muffler at and how much?

I've got a 2001 ST with the 40 Series. The first link below is just so you can see the different mufflers available from FlowMaster. For the Sport Trac, the muffler will need to be O/C 2.25". This means that the inlet is offset and the outlet is in the center of the muffler. Both have a diameter of 2.25". All this does is replace the muffler. The rest of the exhaust will stay stock (if you want).

The part number of the 40 Series you would want is 942441 from the FlowMaster website. If you want a different muffler, you at least know how it should be configured.

The next link is where I bought mine. I think it's one of the cheapest places to buy it.

The third link just takes you to the 40 Series they sell.

You would take the new muffler to a shop, and they would cut out the old, and weld in the new. Make sure to tell them to put the new muffler as far back as possible. This helps get rid of much of the drone in the cab. Also, tell the shop to cut out the resonator. It is the smaller looking muffler near the rear axle.
