Yeah with the bigger glasspacks and the longr exhaust for the longer chassis I would think you will be just fine. Mine comes out the driver side rear by the bumper and it doesn't seem loud one bit even in drive thrus.

That makes me happy. Lol.
Got started welding the mufflers to the H pipe during lunch. Will finish that off after work then get started on the tailpipes.
Welding goes so smooth when it goes smooth.
Man I’m beat. But the build demands an update. The exhaust is done-ish. Still needs hangers and a few straps to hold the dual tail pipes together. Front half is in. Rear half is friggin long and on the flo.
@the_blaze - have you thought about something like this for your rear diff? I might give it a shot on mine.
If you’re referring to the burp tank, it probably should be considered a temporary fix, but it works well, so I see no reason to change it now.
I routed the tailpipes to the driverside, rather than the back, because I’ve always wanted to be able to watch and see when the truck is blowing smoke and never could. Now I can. Simple set of 90s and 45s gets it up nice and high out of harms way.
Still need to weld the pipes together so they don’t rattle, but the exhaust is in for hanger placement, then it will come out for the last time before going back in to its forever home.

Nice job on the exhaust. Routing looks really good.
Looks like that exhaust layout took a lot of work. Nicely done.
Thanks man, I appreciate that.
Thanks man. Just did one piece at a time. Yes, that statement was inspired.
Like eating an elephant.
For CK5 eyes only. The exhaust is “done”. Hangers are welded in. There are three. One on the H pipe. One behind the mufflers/fore axle, and one by the shackle hanger/aft axle. I also added two “straps” to hold the tail pipes together and keep them from rattling. One at the end, on top and out of sight, and the other opposing the rear-most hanger, also hidden and out of sight. I slapped together a couple frame-side brackets for the H-pipe and axle hangers. All of this goes in tomorrow for the final time. And then it’s time to pound out all the little to-do’s between here and Moab. Should be firing up the truck on Saturday. I’ll bet it blows sky high.
It’s in. Two more hangers to go and I forgot to add the egt sensor bung. So I’ll slap that on this afternoon.
I like everything about the exhaust routing. I've never seen duals pulled down the side like that but it looks good.
Great work.
Great work.
Thanks man, I appreciate that. In my head, it was a necessity because I didn’t think I had room for exhaust on the passenger side with the traction bar installed. I didn’t care for having to have the exhaust cross under the tcase again either, but, unlike the last version, this crossover pipe is removable which will make servicing the 205 easier. I’m really happy with how it all came out.
Some damn nice work through and through
That’s a lot of pipe! Nice job! 
I might have missed it...what made you decide to go twin pipe all the way back instead of one big single?

My thought exactly, since he keeps talking about adding a single turbocharger.
