true duals before axle or after?
true duals before axle or after? I been debating on either putting the true duals all the way to the tips or cutout before the axle. Which one would have a really good sound w/cats? Does it matter where it's at? Any suggestions will be useful. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />
Re: true duals before axle or after? Go all the way out the back!!! If you drop off before the axle, you get a really bad drone as the exhaust is exiting right behind your seat. Just bend the pipes so they go under the axle tubes and then run out the rear like factory. Not only looks better, but even better, it won't make you an Tylonal addict <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: true duals before axle or after? ya, you will have to remove the panhard rod, and i dont think you can go bigger than 2.5" piping.

Re: true duals before axle or after? I did not remove anything and my exhaust is over the axle. Every now and then when I hit a decent size pot hole the exhuast will hit but other than that there are no rattles or banging. My exhaust is 2.5 with an X-pipe.

When you made the new lower bracket mount, did you also lower the top mount? Reason I'm asking is because I'm wondering if the geometry is changed any. I wouldn't think dropping one side a inch would do anything, just wondering. A longer rod with a lower mount may push the axle more to the drivers side than a shorter/more horizontal bar. Have you noticed anything? Most likely it would not be enough to matter. Just curious.
