Just cruious, but where is the space problem?
Some pics might help brainstorm some other fitment....
Possibly another type muffler, I ran Dynomax Bullets on my WS6, basically a tad larger than the pipe, thats it...(3")No bulky case to try to fit...

Exhaust clearance...
I ran 2.5 exhaust on a 5.3 conversion for a friends jeep(tj)that was built for rock crawling(like yours)for clearance w/ no problems. The motor will have plenty of torque like that. Only problem w/ smaller exhaust is mild restiction at high RPM's which you're not needing for rock 'crawling'

cool, anybody have a tip on who has a good 3"compact muffler
01pewter-lmao?do you mean because I have a space problem or because of the jungle gym of tubing back there?
I want to make all the power I can so If 3" is what I need I will get it,when not trail/rock crawlin I wanna be bustin' black marks if you know what I mean

Well, how loud do you want it?
Dynomax Bullet, is only slightly larger than your exhaust pipe, but its pretty damn loud
Id go with either a Bullet, or FloPro twister, something along those lines....
