This may sound crazy but...Please give input!

I had a muffler shop start installing my Magnaflow exhaust system only to tell me they could not finish it because my truck was lowered too much! Now mind you, I am only running a 3/5 drop. 2" drop spindles with 1" drop springs in the front and 3" drop springs and 2" lowering blocks in the rear. The Magnaflow system uses 2.5" mandrel bent stainless pipes. They completed the drivers side but stopped at the muffler for the passenger side. In their defense, I don't see how the last pipe could have fit on the passenger side. The tab on the rear end for the brake hose/line connection and the passenger side brake line was the problem, there was no clearance there. This system was designed to run over the axle and exit just behind the rear tire. My drop is not extreme by any means so how is everyone who runs their exhaust to exit behind the back tires doing this?? Pics would be most helpful! Thanks.

I am particularly looking for pics of the passenger side rear end area. I also have a fuel cell between the frame rails so straight out the back is not an option.
