Installed the MRT King of the Hill Sidekick exhaust on my Maverick over the weekend.

I found it kind of annoying that in order to install an aftermarket exhaust you have to cut behind the cat. Not sure why they didn’t just design it the same way as with the regular Bronco where the mid pipe and cat are bolted together. I ended up just renting an exhaust cutting tool from AutoZone which wasn’t too bad and only a slight inconvenience.

Best sounding exhaust I've heard! Personally I don't like the side kick, I'm going with the rear exit when I finally pull the trigger!

I ended up going with the sidekick because I wanted a little extra clearance in the back. I wish there was a way to route the exhaust over the differential like on the regular Broncos.

Any issues with jacking up the truck with that side exit in the way??

Can you post some photos of the exhaust under the truck?
