exhaust dumping under bed?
I wanna let my exhaust dump underneath the bed before the rear. If doing this, how much harm will it do to the bed?

Shouldn't hurt the bed but it will cause "drone"

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
If you use turn downs to point the flow toward the ground no damage will likely occur.

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
So none of the emissions will cause the bed to rot out or anything?

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
It might turn the bottom black (only without turn downs). IMO it would sound way better if it dumped outside.

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
Not quite the same, but my Jimmy has full duals dumping down before the back axle. Doesn't appear to have any effect on the vehicle itself, but it sure is noisy...

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
If you have gravel driveway or dirt anywhere you park, they blow dirt up like crazy, mine are getting changed.......soon.

Re: exhaust dumping under bed?
