That looks great. That's where I'm planning to run mine when I do the exhaust. I want to put on an x-pipe then run straight out the back. Right now mine comes out a little short. LOL

Muffler guy told me that my 2.5" won't run "Out-da-Back" on a coil-spring truck (something about clearance on the left-side). So, I thought I might run 'em both out the right-side, instead. I'm not going to leave them sticking out anyway. I would turn 'em down just at the edge of the bumper. That way you can't see the ends of the pipes.

Whatcha think?

That sounds like it will work fine. I just didn't care too much for the pipes turning out the sides. You would be surprised how much quieter it is in the cab with the pipes out the back.

Looks Good. Mine looks similar to al's71gmc except the P.O. meant to have them dump there...

When I got it only 1 of them dumped there, but a couple of months bouncing on the gravel road evened them up.LOL
