And here is a shot showing the general angle that they had to be made to follow. On the drivers side the one side must go out and around the transfer case a little more and the fuel tank limits how far back I could run it. I have these tucked right up close to the cab so that there is NOTHING hanging down below the frame. A great benefit of the cab lifted a bit off the frame is that I can raise everything up and after I build a new cross member for the transmission there won't be anything hanging down past the frame so I could seriously build a flat belly pan/ skid plate like an RC or race truck. I'm sure that would afford me a couple more MPG which would be a fun experiment... in all my free time, yeah right.

These pipes don't weigh hardly anything! The next time I have these off to weld on the hangers I'll put them on a scale.
