California exhaust?

[trust96xj]

How many of you SoCal guys have your exhaust cut and dumped right before the rear axle? Had to chop mine. Just curious.

I do, but I was told recently that will get you in hot water in the SBNF, and not allowed on official runs as it kicks up much more dust that way.

guess i cant wheel anymore. no way to get it by the rear wishbone 3 link.

I had mine that way for a very long time, not ideal though. And i'm sure you'll get tired of the extra interior noise.

Mine is like that... I gotta agree... every time I pull up to camp I blow dust everywhere!!!

As long as your exhaust has proper spark arresting capabilities I don't see an issue with it. Dust is a moot point for you since you'll just be passed out in camp anyway. :cheers:

I followed someone with a steeply turned down exhaust, though the pipe went almost to the back bumper. The amount of dust that was kicked up was quite surprising. I kept thinking they were spinning their wheels all the time for the first few miles.

I have a maggy 14" oval muffler and a turn down.. IS turned down/out towards the pass side.

I did for a while... Had to busy out the sawzall after installing my hitch and fuel tank skid since it wouldn't clear the pipe. Bought a cheap clamp on turndown and ran it like that for quite a while.

Never had an issue

Hmmmmm okay. I just installed remote ressy shocks and they just wouldn't fit with te exhaust at full length. It's loud but not annoying. Funny though, louder in the can than outside. Ha. I ran it for a few minutes and it threw sparks cause the metal shavings from the cut, but not anymore. I was just wondering if you guys every got popped cause noise or anything. Thanks for the info. Naxja is da best.
