Re: 6-8 Drop Trailing Arm Exhaust Routing?

On mine, I ran the 2 1/2's thru the trailing arm cross member. The mufflers were mounted wide and close behind that x member. The tail pipes were run under the rear end housing and straight back along the sides of the fuel tank exiting under the rear bumper. I wanted to go over the rear axle, but the axle tube is real close to the wood bed when suspension is compressed. I have a 1" C notched frame. I think it can be done if planed very carefully, and some short radius U bends can be sourced. My panhard rod bracket blocks the driver's side straight exit route, so exhaust would have to turn outward aft of axle and routed to exit under rear fender. (stepside)
All trucks are different, so you just have to get under there and plan a route.
