Default Texas Speed Long Tubes

Im looking into purchasing a set of Texas Speed long tube headers. My truck is 4x4 and everyone tells me that long tubes are going to be near impossible. I was just wondering if anyone had a set on a 4x4 truck and if so were there any other modifications that you had to do? Is there a shop in the southern WV area that anyone could recommend?

Most longtubes fit 4x4 unless advertised there only for 2wd, my LPP fit beautifully, tons of clearence between the driveshaft, frame, etc

The American Racing Headers that I sell fit 4x4's without any extra work. 100% bolt on.

My OBX header collector would have been against the front shaft yolk. I cut the Y pipe and installed an X-pipe. This gave me a good amount of clearance.

Let me know what year and engine your truck is, and I'll send you some information.
