I know there are other threads asking about if people have done this, so I will just add to the pile now and share my first "mod" on my 2015 expedition el.
Ive never tried doing this from my phone so i hope the attachments work. If not, im sorry for my ignorance.
Basically, 2015 expy has 170k on it and the muffler looked like a cat crawled in and died. The insulation was coming undone and im sure I was losing a teenie scoosh of flow and performance. Id been wanting to do a rear muffler delete anyway cause i hate how the stock one sticks out the back. I much prefer how the pickups go out the side so i just went and got a 3" 90 from napa, a stainless 90 hanger, an easy seal 3" exhaust clamp, a regular 3" exhaust clamp, and i got my favorite 4" resonated angle cut exhaust tip from eBay.
Cut the 90 at about 60* in the bend then just turned it and welded it then welded on my hanger, clamped the end to the old exhaust, cut the pipe to length to fit with the tip, used the easy deal clamp to butt the exhaust to the tip, and voila!
All in all i think it looks good! Mounts up to the stock muffler bracket and gets the job done. * air high five*
If anything i may move it in another inch, but I will try it like this first and see how it tickles my fancy.
Basically I wanted something that you wouls never guess was not a factory piece to the casual onlooker.
