Thanks man. I'm pretty proud of myself for getting the job done. I think the pic angle is just deceiving you. There is plenty of clearance and they aren't really above the drive shaft, just to the side. I'll be getting them cut out soon anyway, so they shouldn't pose a problem.

Thanks man. They are full length shorties, and that's about all I know. They are meant to bolt up to the stock y-pipe so I would say they are just normal. They cost about $325 shipped from a guy on ebay that didn't ever get a chance to install them, so they were brand new. It was a pretty good deal and I'm really happy with them.

Thanks man. There's no doubt that I'll be enjoying this system for a long time. It just sounds so good, I just love it. My gas mileage will probably go down for a while though; it'll be hard to keep my foot out of it(it was today anyway). Thanks again to everyone who has commented on them and helped me out with some suggestions on the install. Without all of the knowledge that I got from you guys, I probably would've messed something up. So I really appreciate it.

 

like RM_Indy suggests
it is a good idea to test whether
the driveshaft will hit
by putting a load in the truck's bed,
perhaps by filling up garbage cans
or black plastic bags
with enough water

it would be a shame to damage the driveshaft
after so much effort

 

Thanks man. I checked and made sure I had plenty of clearance before I installed the mufflers. I think it is just a very deceiving picture. I am cutting them out very soon anyway, so I don't think that they will pose a problem.
