I want to get the Woods storage tub but first need to move my muffler. I love how quiet my Jeep is and don't won't a louder aftermarket muffler.
Has anyone moved the stock muffler where the Evap used to be and put a skid plate over it?? It may be too big and turn into a rock magnet!
Or does anyone know of an aftermarket muffler that is close to as quiet as stock??
Any thoughts appreciated!

I also have a 2 door Rubi, and am going to attempt the same project. The only difference is I already have the KIlby Evap Kit, which should work with the Woods trunk and Wood relocatin kit. My concern was heat under the drivers area.

thats simular to where my muffler is. But the exit will not pass inspection. And will be dangerous when the top is on. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/muffler-relocation-40464/
I haven't noticed any additional heat in the drivers or rear drivers side seat. Step outside the truck... you can feel the heat there. heat shield doing it's job. The muffler is a little bit louder. Magnaflow makes a longer one than this one... it would be quiter.

This is the muffler I'm using:
flowmastermufflers.com/products/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=4020
No drone
Not very loud at all (I can't tollerate loud any more...lol)
Gained a little over 1 mpg also (numerous tank fulls, hand calculated)
I also relocated it right under the drivers seat.

i haven't had any issues with heat under my driver side seat since installing the woods muffler relocation. the muffler isn't quiet, but it isn't overly loud either.
