Exhaust before Rear wheels

hey guys, I'm getting ready to finish up my exhaust this month or next I wanted to see picture of your guys exhaust coming out the sides before the rear wheels and right after the gas tank, not sure if it's been covered before or not. This is going to be for a lwb c10 so if you post pictures please note if its swb or lwb.

thanks guys!!

Re: Exhaust before Rear wheels

Yeah that's fine I'm just trying to get ideas, because I don't know if I'll be forced to do it like yours, because I'd really like to run it at an like a 45 degree angle kind of like the svt lightning trucks but single pipe on each side.

Re: Exhaust before Rear wheels

I know it's not the best picture but here's my exhaust now, as you can see the further back one you can see where my gas tank is I'm guess I'd have to run it pretty close to my wheel so that I have clearance of my gas tank?

Thanks. It's slowly getting put back together. I dunno how much of an angle the pipe is pointing down, I kinda just held it up and welded it redneck style. The whole thing is eye-balled, haha. (I definitely could've done a better job).
The tips are IN 2.5" and OUT 4" with a 45 degree slant. I wanted mine as close to the body as possible so I ditched the saddle tanks. It's inches from the E-brake though, I have to do something about that. You might have to route yours under your leaf spring.

Here's how I had it before I got rid of the saddle tanks. It still woul've looked good with some stainless tips on there:

LOL thanks. The seat is brand new, just upholstered, so I threw that on there to protect it.

Thanks for the pictures I'm getting some good ideas I'm thinking I could almost take my current dumped pipes and if I pointed them put it would be perfect, and I would just have to figure out how much to point them down so I wouldn't burn my bed any. I really want them to come out at an angle to me it just looks best that way, but I'll have to do some measuring because I don't want to do it and make it look tacky I want it to look nice and clean. I'm trying to keep my saddle tanks because I don't really want to move them and have them remounted.

I have them off now since I've lowered my truck more and I will be running it through the frame and back out the side holes again
