4.8 Exhaust Tips

Will the 4.8 exhaust tip fit on a 4.4 exhaust?

yes, it is a direct bolt up to the 4.4 and the 3.0

I don't think I was clear in my 1st post. My 4.4 has the 3 chrome tips - I saw one for a 4.9 with 1 tip perside with dual inlets

NovaX5 - I did do a search and it looks like some people needed to have these welded, but others did not - just wondering if these would fit over the existing pipes

the 4.8 tips themselves will not just fit over the 4.4 tips. I thought you were talking about a complete cat back setup.

you have to cut off the 4.4 tips and then weld in the 4.8 tips.

its gotta be welded.. but it took my welder like 5 minutes after he chopped off the tips.. so nothing major. they were just 'tacked' on and it holds up perfectly.
