I ran 3". Its a bit loud in the cab but i love the sound of it. Id go 3" if i were you. If you were running dual then 2.5 would be fine but single id run 3".
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.

you should be all redneck style and keep the jacuzzi in the garage!

Well, I guess not because it takes up a parking spot or work space, but I think it would be funny as hell to have that thing permanently live there!

Just keep the garage door closed & the HOA won't know - haha.

Plus HOAs can go screw themselves. Well, that's my take on that at least!

Well not much goin on except for finding my oil pressure gauge (manual) was leaking. I went to electrical gauges and gained 10 lbs of oil pressure. I have, however been working on things. The jacuzzi is finished and full of water (thank you Steve chasetruck) for the encouragement. Also i built 2 shelves on casters as my projects are at random and space is a limiting factor.

Good deal on the hot tub and good call on the shelves on casters. Damn near everything I own I put on casters as I'm constantly shifting stuff around to make room for different projects. Definitely a smart move doing it from the beginning!
