Exhaust system install

Im looking to run straight pipes out of the rear of my pickup (1977 f250 custom) but i am afraid of causing issues with the location of the pipes since id have to run under the tank and im afraid to go around the tank because i dont want the suspension to hit the pipes. Does anybody have any input on how i could best run the system?

Get it past the cross member and then turn it out in front of the tires and be done and not have any routing issues back there. But if you just have to....

I doubt it, in the last pic, that truck has a bed side TB. If the gap is close get a JY piece of heat shield and put on the bottom of the plastic liner.
