Re: Ideas how to quiet my cabin drone noise please

Had a buddy with a car with turbos with the turn downs in front of the axle that I quit riding in because the drone on the highway gave me a severe headache. That was the worst one for it I ever rode in or drove though.

It would help to run some pipes out in front of the rear tires to get the concussion from the exhaust out from under the truck. You will still get some drone but it will be a lot less. Srill nothing matches exhaust pipes that run clear to the back bumper either exiting straight back or to the sides. Sometimes gas tanks and everyting else don't allow for it on these trucks but it makes a serous amount of different for long road trips that last several days and cover several thousand miles.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
