dual exhaust - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bought the dual exhaust kit from LMC--having trouble getting the glass packs and pipes run properly--rear exit. seems to be too little clearance around the drive shaft.

Anyone have a picture of a properly installed dual exhaust with glasspacks on a short step?

Any help on getting this thing in right would be great.....

I think those kits are made for longbeds, did you already cut the front pipes?

Yep - cut them already think they are fine.
Where the extension pipe wraps around the frame and connects to the glass pack is where I am having probs.

mine just run in a pretty straight line all the way back and are turned out behind the rear wheels, but it's a 4x4 short step.

Stupid question - 1st time do-it-yourself job--

Does anyone have a pic of how to run the pipe around the frame in front of the glass packs.

-The GPs site on either side of the drive shaft between cab and axle. (short-step 67)

- I have the pipe running up and around --between the frame and control arm. --already shortened exhaust pipe off manifold.

- Tailpipe wraps oever and around axle but can't get the tailpipe to sit straight and level with frame / bumper.

What the *^&#$@#@%$@ am I doing wrong....?

Try Wes's sight www.classicheartbeat.com . He sells a kit and he should have pics there.
