I see you've discovered 3 1/2 inch pipe doesn't bend very tight, especially on compound bends like around and under the frame at the right front wheel well. That's why I mitered mine, worked great.
Now that my truck is a 'Pickup', it's just like all of the other Chevy, Dodge, Ford diesel pickups with the exhaust at ground level. How can it get me in trouble?
No, no power loss at all. I was worried about how sharp the bends had to be, to get around the frame, but the diameter stays the same ( 3.5" ) on all of the turns.
It is real easy to slip on a muffler. I tried one`and it did take the bark out of the exhaust tone but the loud rumble is still right there in your face. It is a lot of work to plumb the exhaust out the back but it sure is nice. I can drive around with my passenger window down and I don't hear...
C'mon I have big tires, isn't that annoying enough?
There is no "undercarriage pipe" so to speak of, the lowest the pipe ever gets is 7 inches above the battery box and fuel tank. It really is tucked up out of the picture. If I bend or hit the tail pipe then I will shorten it as necessary...
Booger's version of rear exhaust
I thought I would try something a little different. I ran my exhaust out the back, behind the right rear tire. I can't hear the exhaust noise, even with the windows down.
