Default True Duals In Front of Both Rears

I did not want to 'highjack' someone else post so I started a new one for those interested.

I also have a few more pics of the exhaust on my album today. The body kit helps hide it just like step/nerf bars would. If you don't have them, you just have to roll it up a tad bit more when yoy cross the frame to hide but there is plenty of room. I have been running this same set up since 78 and have never had any gas tank problems. There is also a crossover (H) pipe in front of the cats.

Thanks for the info. This question came up a few times and nobody could find pics. I really like the look but I already have duals out the rear. I bet glasspacks could be hidden easier though.

Not Hardly!! The flows are WAY better sounding than the packs... Of course they were old school $14.00 packs. The new ones might sound better. Don't know...

I got a question...

Why do people call them "true duals"?. Is it because there are "fake duals"?

True duals use two mufflers. "Fake" duals are one muffler with dual exits.
