No, they're attached to the frame.

Do you have any more shots looking down at the bumper or standing up behind the truck?
Thanks!
Thanks. No, I'll get out there today and take some more and post tonight. I like them when their straight out the back too, but not very good on 4X4's and when you tow trailers.

I'm with JWall and OC 72. I like them hidden and/or just barely visible. Here's mine.

I checked them out over the weekend for you and they do not have a name, number, or anything on them anywhere... I've got a huge folder of receipts I will flip thru & see if I find any info there.

Re: Tail Pipes To The Bumper
Not to hijack this great thread, but what have you guys done with you exhaust at the hoop (the crossmember the D-shaft runs through)? Mine came under it, but on a low truck it would hit hard.
Thanks for letting me butt in!

Re: Tail Pipes To The Bumper
in my truck we went under the crossmember and has never been an issue even now while on air bags. If my truck was to lay frame then I would have to re route it.
