SS_bnoon_SS Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 I'm looking for how much room long tubes leave me with underneath the truck, i.e. how close to the crossmembers they get, where there's room to run collectors or bends... etc. Anyone got any pics of SSS LT's installed from underneath? Couldn't find any... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 The only one that gets very close to the frame rail, at least that has been posted about, is the Supermaxx. Some have had to pry away from things. The other thing to consider is the driveshaft going to the front diff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone has to have a pic of what they did somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 There aren't many out there (members) with custom exhaust after the headers. All long tube kits out there, minus supermaxx, weld right up to the stock exhaust just in front of the cat. That being the case, then there should not be present the issues you are worried of. Unless of course, you're going custom after the headers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_bnoon_SS Posted October 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 (edited) Unless of course, you're going custom after the headers. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yup, that's what I'm doing. I want to use the "better" collectors that off the shelf headers hardly ever come with (hour glass shape, 4/2/1). Everything from there back will be mandrel bends, probably some Flowmaster Delta-flows, and fabricated slash cut tips existing the passenger's side before the rear wheel (possibly cut into the lower bed/quarter extension). The tips will be two 2.5" tubes welded side by side, wrapped once around with sheet metal, and slash cut at a 45 degree angle to resemble a vintage NASCAR boom-tube type of side exit. I just started fabricating the tips this week. WHHHHHoah, I almost posted a "picture warning" about the tips that I should have finsihed this weekend. Glad that didn't happen.
