First off im not sure if this belongs in this section or not w.e change it if need be
anyway within the next week im gettin a bodylift and im afraid my exhaust is gonna look like a$$
i had it done a couple of years ago becuase i never planned on getting a BL well now it turns out i am so what can i do to bring the tips up a little with out having to have it completely rebent is there anything i can do to bring it up without a welder.
post up what you guys have done in the past
btw here is my setup

thanks Jordan

 

I think you can just get it rehung

 

Yeah its gonna need to be rebent.

 

yea thats what i thought
what about getting shorter hangers? id be happy even if it was only an inch below the bumper
idk maybe i should have it rebent i wasnt happy with it the first time they did some mandrel bends and some crinkle bends
how much $$$ to have it rebent?

 

it wont need completely rebent just have them bent a piece that will raise it 3 inches after the cats and it will be fine

 

Im liking that exhaust... what is it?

 

nevermind... read your sig.

 

where would i have it rebent at behind the cats?
i was thinking cut a section out of where it comes down after going over the axle and re weld it
pics of how yours is done please

 

mine isnt dont like that tylers is but i dont have a pic i will draw something quick

 

after the cat have them bend it at 45s with a rise of 3 inches and it will work

 

alright thats what i was thinking cuz they never did from the cat back like i told them to
they hacked the old muffler off and started from there and went back
but doing it this way i have to get new shorter hangers?

 

no it should be the same since your raise in the body 3 inches then the exhaust 3 inches should be the same

 

umm??? i think the hangers are attached to the frame if i move the whole system up with the body i will have to replace the hangers as well
do you know about how much something like that would cost?

 

heads up...

If you ever decide to run 2" chevy drop shackles, you cannot do exhaust like that while being bodylifted.

 

no not plannin on double liftin
but if i do i will just get new springs because mine are shot thanks for the heads up tho

i just looked under my truck and i might be able to raise the system up without welding
because right after the cats the pipe goes down about 2 in then 2 ft after that it goes back up so what i will do is just cut the part that drops down and get a straight piece of pipe and use clamps to hold it on then i will just take the hangers and shorten them and see if i cant get it to get close to what i need
a little off topic but can i drill new hows on the side of my hitch mounts to raise it up instead of cutting and welding
