That's what I was looking for! Thanks.
I haven't run an underbox spare since I did the 4/7 drop. Actually eliminated the whole spare carrier & the crossmember for it. I may be able to have something similar fabbed up. Only prob that I could see is that it wouldn't fit between the spring & the frame like your's. Might be a bit of a headscratcher.
My '98 has a single 3" cat back right now, with the driver side pipe routed forward to tuck up under the oil pan, then back to a custom 'Y' pipe, before the cat. It was pretty loud when the revs got up there. At lower RPM, made the V6 sound like a damn tractor. The addition of a resonater tucked up behind the axle made a huge dif! Mellowed the sound right out. A buddy & I built it with the idea of an LS engine being in front of it. Don't know how it's gonna work out with that. May just end up ripping it all out and starting over when I get the time to drop in a new engine.

awesome job on the exhaust but why do you have 2 pins on each side for your airbags

Yeah mine's ran this way because of how my suspension and hitch are setup. A stock hitch makes it impossible to go behind with the shackle flip. My old exhaust went behind it. With the larger pipe though i ran a risk of smashing it with the shackle, so i went in front of it this time which isn't possible stock.

This exhaust is loud. Really Loud. But surprisingly quiet in the cab. (these are videos BTW)

I have removable "legs" for the airbags. My suspension flexes about 14", the bags only 8". Don't want to use them as a limiting strap.

It's a gen 6 454 with vortec heads, mercruiser roller cam and vortec roller lifters powered by a worked over tbi on an edelbrock manifold. By paper it is supposed to be in the neighborhood of 385hp 500ftlb.

I had a hunch it wasn't your typical stock tbi 350! Sounds great. Love the truck and all your write ups!
