Default True Duals Installed , have a look !

Well after about 2 weaks on and off waiting for parts to come in and working on it a couple of hours a night , we finally got my exhaust all done . The goal was to run 3'' true duals and to try and keep the whole exhaust tucked up high and tight above the tranny crossmember because this is on a truck with a 4/6 drop and i think we achieved that pretty damn good .

Pacesetter LT's , All 3'' mandrel bends , cutouts , x-pipe , and 18'' Magnaflows dumped before the axle .

Will get some sound clips up as soon as i get a tune done on my truck , who knows when that will be .

Anyway , let me know what you guys think .

Looks nice man. Be sure and get a sound clip up after your tune. I'm beginning to wish I had of went with the 18" magnaflows instead the 14".

I want a tetanus shot just looking at your driveshaft.

But the exhaust itself looks awesome.

might want to wrap that shift linkage too
and pull it out of the way a little too

It looks a little close to the cutout

Why did you put your x-pipe so far back I thought it was best to have it as far forward as possible so it could equal out the pressure in the exhaust quicker thats the way mine is. How the hell are you going to get under a 4-6 dropped truck to open up the cut-outs. That exhaust looks awesome I wish my dual exhaust was mandrel bent.

That looks killer man! I much customizing you had to do to get it to tuck under the 4/6 drop? Looks like it came out just right.

Electric cutouts are in the future plans .

and as far as the x-pipe goes if i didnt have to tuck everything for the 4/6 drop it would have been alot easier to get the x-pipe closer to the front of the truck for sure , but in my case it wasnt .

We had to do alittle notching on the carrier bearing bracket and do alot of careful bends and thats about it . Just take your time and it will pay off !!!
