That looks great! Similar to what I was thinking but I was going to come through the trans meber on the drivers side (I'm 2wd though). What clamps are those that you are using. You know yet if they seal up? People talk about not sealing with clamps, but I don't know if they use that syle clamp or if they are talking about slipping the exhaust over the header collector and clamping that.

these clamps are slip clamps so the flex pipe goes over the header then clamp goes over flex and collector. they seal ok i had to flare the flex to fit over the collector so i should use like a 3 1/4" slip clamp but i cant find one. but there is only a small leak ill find something to fix it hear shortly.

I've always wondered how well those flex pipes hold up.

Looks like a nice system though.

Looks Real Nice, But Was Is The Purpose Of The Flex Pipe? Im Not Bashing Your Setup, Just Wondering. I Am Running Basically The Same Thing Without The Flex, And Have No Problems.

ls1truck, i was wondering the same thing.

besides that it's an awsome setup. it's similar to mine, except for my cutout and tailpipe under the rear fender behind the tire.

good job!

That is clean as hell. I bet It's gonna sound killer! Sorry to be off topic, but how do you like your nitto 420s'? I wanted to buy a set but haven't seen anyone with them
