another exhaust question

my truck has 2.5" exhaust on it. it has been lowered 4-6. it has an ece super trac bar out back and blazer gas tank. i havent had much luck finding somebody that will run the pipe over the axel. i know there aint much room but has anybody had these issues before? and has anybody mounted there mufflers at the back bumper kind of like a new car. except with turndowns or something? thanks for the help. and if you have any pictures that would be nice to!!!

here is what i had done to mine. i am not sure if it would clear the blazer gas tank though. My system is bagged and the exhaust barely touches the axle when the axle bottoms out on the bump stops.

If you cant find anyone that thinks they can route the exhaust over the axle.....you havent found anyone that knows how to route exhaust. i would look for a mom & pop muffler shop, usually you can find someone who knows what they are doing there.

Re: another exhaust question

It might help if you take pictures with you to give the exhaust guy an idea of what you are wanting done. i had several shops tell me it couldnt be done and i was crazy for thinking it could.

I would like to see how they route your exhaust around the tank.
i have been thinking about putting in a blazer tank, curious to know if my exhaust will need to be moved or it i am good as is.
