depends on how your truck looks really, if you have a truck with a 2/4 drop with 20s and a roll pan it's gonna look weird with redneck tips out the back so dumped would be better. but if it's a z71 with a 6" lift then tips out the back might be cool cuz it would go with the hard *** look of the lifted truck.

cred, your's aren't redneck tips, those rolled look tips are decent....i'm talking about the slash cut, big *** echo tips....those suck and they distort the sound of the truck so bad it's horrible.

Hey Creederado, what kind of rear suspension are you running? I can see what looks like a four link up under there.

How about out the side in front of the wheels? Either both on one side or one per side? Thats my plans, always thought that looks better. Not much resonation as dumping and not the everyday look of out the back.

if you plan on running them out both sides in front of the tires you'll have to move the gas tank. i wanted to do that with mine but it would cause a major problem putting that pipe right by the gas tank. putting 2 pipes via real true duals with 18" bullet mufflers and 3.5" tips on mine resonated like hell, and made a whistling noise going down the highway. it did have a mean low RPM sound though....

My opinion, dump it or at least run it where it can't be seen. I just think it looks alot cleaner when the exhaust is hidden

I know what you mean, every truck up here has flowmaster exhaust with rusted out 4"-3 foot long tips


****- I have Hotchkis springs, sway bar, Qa1 shocks and CalTrac Bars
