Exhaust Swap From GX550 to LC250

[imann777]

Has anybody thought about the exhaust swap. Can this be achievable without any mods.
1. What are Part Numbers
2. Costs
3. Advantages / Disadvantages
4. Any impact on the Fuel efficiency.

The GX and LC have different rear suspension and differential designs (at least in the USA).. We learned the gas tanks can't be swapped because of this. I noticed Magnaflow has different part numbers for their US market GX550 and LC250 exhausts. Here's a straight exhaust that is made for diesel LC250s that could be fun:

Has anyone modified the exhaust yet?

@ D-mac, the DPF exhaust cannot be used for Gasoline trucks. they are built around for Diesel Engines, as they diesel particulate filter (DPF) device are designed to remove diesel particulate matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. They are succesful in OZ, and the decibel and drone noise are not legal in many states.
