Hey everyone, I’ve been toying with the idea of customizing the exhaust on my 2010 Ford Ranger 4.0L to give it a bit more growl and personality. The stock exhaust has served me well, but let’s be honest—it doesn’t exactly turn heads. I’m not looking to make it obnoxiously loud, but I’d love a deeper, throatier sound that gives a little more presence, especially when I’m out on the open road.
Before I start ordering parts, I really want to plan this out carefully. I’ve been researching different exhaust setups, but it’s tough to visualize how everything will fit together without a proper exhaust system diagram. I’m hoping someone here has access to a diagram for the 4.0L V6 engine or has gone through a similar process and can share some insights.
I’m also curious to hear about any specific setups that have worked well for others. Whether it’s a cat-back system, new mufflers, or something more custom, I’d love to know what’s out there and what’s worked for you. I’m particularly interested in any tips on avoiding common pitfalls, like drone at highway speeds or compatibility issues with other mods.
Additionally, I’m a bit of a DIY enthusiast, so I’m planning to tackle the installation myself. If anyone has advice on the installation process—things like what tools are absolutely necessary, any tricky spots to watch out for, or tips on getting the best sound and performance—I’m all ears.
