Exhaust re-mount?

[dlxrobinson]

I took my rear bumper off God knows how many months ago and the exhaust kills me because of how far it hangs down. Anyone remount their exhaust on the back end?

The argument against that has always been the charm of running with the back window open and the risk of filling the truck with CO gas if you stop at a light with any kind of a tailwind.

I put a different exhaust on and have it turn down before the axle. I also added a resonator tube to cancel out the drone around 2000rpm.

Simple fix is to chop it right at the bottom of the axle turndown.

What downsides come with cutting it there?

Possible exhaust buildup if you're sitting in traffic for a long time. it's still angled down and out towards the side of the vehicle, so you probably won't have any problems.

Probably is the key word. I'll have to look into it a bit more. Thanks everybody!
