ok.. i'm thinking ahead of myself here a bit so i havent done much research.. i'm lifting my 87 to 5" in the spring and i am planning on using some extended shackles as part of the kit.. i expect this to interfere with the tail pipe.. common fix is just to cut off the offending section oof pipe. i am not comfortable with this band-aid.. i dont like trapping that much bad gas under the body and heat near the gas tank.. heres my question..
how closely do the XJ and MJ exhaust systems compare?? the MJ has a side exit tail pipe is the only thing i'm sure of.. i assume it is able to exit to the side because it is a spring-under and the leaf packs must be a bit longer and slightly longer shackles as well.. creating useable space ABOVE the springpack for a tail pipe.. with a 3.5" spring and a 1.5" shackle i would think i'd have enough room to run an MJ pipe out the side.. that is if it will match up with the rest of the system routing...
thanx guys....
