Yes, a few on here have done it and I plan on going under the axel later this month. DVSST8 has one of the better set-ups ive seen. Search and you will find some examples.

Yeah this is discussed almost everyday, and there are lots of pics, its not that bad to do and you will still have good ground clearance. just put you some flanges under the axle for when you use a jack on the car so you can unbolt it easy and the axle wont hit.

Check out the link in my sig. Tons of pics/info on it.

Under the axle works awesome. I have no problems with it at all. The clearance will be worse other places than under the axle, even better if you just reduce to 2.5" after the mufflers. The only problem is if you go over a large enough bump too fast, your suspension will unload and the swaybar will touch it.
