2 1/2's even over the axle can be done with stock parts still in stock places. Pan hard allows a slight left right movement of the rear as it travels up and down. Changing the geometry changes the characteristics of the way it moves.

I run dual 3" dumped before the axle.

Bought the piping and had it fitted and welded for under 80 bucks.

I only lost a 1 inch of ground clearance from stock. If it setup right you shouldnt have any problems
