    Justin,I sure hope your luck improves! There are 2 things I hate on a car and they are tires and exhaust systems. I don't get flats often,but when I do it is mandatory to be pouring rain,on a slope of at least 30°,in an anthill,and usually grass tall enough where you can't even see where to put the jack! I have found on exhausts to just replace the whole damn thing and get it over with. I have skinned more knuckles screwing around with rusted pipes and mufflers and the time involved,than to spend a few dollars more and actually save the money in the replacement time of new parts. I lucked out a few years back and got a fresh exhaust system off a wrecked Maverick. I took it off completely assembled,just take the shocks off and let the rear axle down and you can get it out. What a Godsend cause mine was patched up junk! Hang in there my friend,cause luck doesn't stay bad forever!:burnout:

    about 30 years ago, I decided that i was done trying to do any kind of exhaust work. I take it to a garage. That's one of the few things I don't do

    I just have to add that a "FAT TIRE" is a beer. So...what I'm getting out of it is...some FAT TIRE and a blow out within in 220 FEET!. :wine: This adds a whole new twist to the story. :cheers: :biglaugh: :rofl2:

    Good luck getting the tire situation straightened out.
