Hi, I bought new exhaust for my truck. I got a flowmaster 10 series with two pipes dumped out the side before the wheel, and my question is how to weld the chrome plated tips to the pipe? Ive dealt with welding just regular pipe but not chrome plated stuff, thanks for the help!

Just weld it like any other metal. No real difference.

+1 ^ Chrome plating will burn away from weld during process.

Okay I have trany trouble too, Mine shifts in to netural each time i release the fuel pedel. I have to run the rpm's up to get it to grab back into gear and it does not shift right. any ideas? I pulled the tanny pan off with plans to replace the filter and clean in there, found a lot of metal shavings and the fluid was dark as night. How would i adjust the TV cable and what is it, also how would i adjust the bands.... mind you when i look at the trany with the pan off it looks like something from the under side of a starship from star wars... I reconize nothing so I need the Intructions for dummies here..... I am trying not to have to rebuild the tranny on this one, the truck isnt worth the cost of the rebuild.

With all the pieces in the tranny, a rebuild is the only thing that will fix it. Sorry. All of the pieces you see are matched by pieces you cannot see all over the inside.

I got it back and now I gotta put it in. Cant wait to drive it again!

I had the same exact problem...
