Well, dropped the spare tire and was able to get under the rear with it on the ground. Made a "you idiot" finding. What I though was the bottom of the bed was actually the heat shield. I need to clearance the "rail" on the underside of the bed and I'll have the room I need. Basically it's the same thing that needs to be done when the rear is dropped 8+ inches to allow clearance for the axle pumpkin.
From top of axle to bottom of bed measured 5.25"
Actual clearance from true bottom of bed to axle 8.5"
How exhaust shop set up the pipe when welding in the magnaflow muffler. Plenty of clearance here folks.
Clearance with the pipe completely up against the bed heat shield

I doubt I'll even bother putting in a support there, eventhough Belltech makes one for that rail. It should only be a 4" segment or thereabouts.I've also thinking about doing some oval exhaust and bringing it all the way out behind the rear tire area.

Here's a question, I have a 4" exhaust waiting to go on and was wondering something. Does anyone have any room underneath to mount a single 4" cat somewhere? I was thinking of doing this to quiet things down a bit and to clean up the smell. What are your thoughts, guys? I don't want to cut and weld the headers.
