nate looks awesome ... so whats your current setup now? do you have any sound clips? mpg difference? or is that too soon? lol
and WTF happened to caldwell havent seen him on here for a long time
Just a larger exhaust pipe from the Y to the other Y pipe. There were two choices at my local Midas; run the exhaust under the axle and use a muffler with two inlets and outlets for actual duals; or use larger pipe from the y-pipe, over the axle, to the other Y-pipe.

Not yet. It follows the stock pipe routing until after the axle. I'll get some pics up soon

Sorry it took me so long to get pics up; been busy lately.
Basically it follows the stock routing all the way up to this Y-pipe then splits and follows the frame. The 2 pipes are the stock 2.25" diameter the rest is like a 2.5" or 2.75"

Hard for me to tell, but did you route the pipe around the spare. Or did you just lose the spare for pipe space?

I think I may be able to fit my spare under there. I haven't tried it yet, but with some heat wrap it may work. I'm content with having my spare in the back of my X as it did hang a bit too low for wheeling with it there.Hard for me to tell, but did you route the pipe around the spare.

A body lift will let your spare move higher up too.
