Hey guys, I have been wanting to put a new exhaust system on my 2000 dakota. I am going to buy a thrush chambered muffler but I'm not sure what type of exhaust bend I need. I wanted to have it come out in front of the rear tire on a 45 degree angle. I would also buy a tip eventually. Thanks!

 

I would have the bend it up and over the frame rail then down to the front of the tire. There's a few setups I've seen that do this.

 

i just posted in this thread a few days ago. i have the set up your talking about with the cherry bomb muffler. honestly i would choose a different muffler if you dont like obnoxious noise lol

Hard to go over the frame rail without a body lift...With a 3" lift mines still pretty tight and pointing downward pretty hard. I did mine as a cheap quick fix one day

 

ive seen it come out behind the passenger/driver door. but the noise would be unbarable. lol

 

Headers, muffler and short pipe.
Awesome sounds.
Going over the frame? Be too tight on my truck. Fuel tank and all that I'd want to stay away from.

Here's a picture of mine over the frame passenger side. Pretty tight with a 3" body lift
