That is where I am at too. I am considering using a set of V-band clamps to make the tail pipes removable from the back of the mufflers and routing them directly under the frame rails out the back so they can straddle the spare tire.

When access is needed to the hardware above it is a simple process to pull the tail pipe that is in the way.

I need to relocate the spare tire hoist closer to the rear end so the tire can clear the hidden hitch and roll pan. After that I can try to fit the dual 2-1/2" tail pipes in that limited space.
