I didn't, but let me at least bump this back up to the top of the list for another look in the forum!

Here is a link to Dr. Gas who makes oval exhaust products, this could help if you are slammed to the ground.

I am running the Air Ride Technologies parallel 4 bar with 9000 shock waves in the rear.

I have the exhaust running straight back under the axle and out the rear--the bag need a min. of 3" from the exhaust.

I am putting Fatman's MII crossmember with shockwave on the front this week end.

Hope the have pictures up after that.

I am running a customer Air Ride Tech trailing arm 8.8 rear setup (meant for ch**y chassis). the trailing arms are too close to the chassis to allow side exit when dropped. I'll have to see if the ovals fit.

also the triangulated rear leaves very little room for over..

I have been thinking abut under, but don't really like that.. no decision yet..
at the moment I am cutoffs downward before the rear diff.. but that won't last long.. too much dirt and dust spray..
