I can second that. I dropped my exhaust on the ute from around that area, it seems the noise reverberates under the tub or something and my god it's loud, not even good loud

lol had a 5.0 calais that had y pieces just before the diff and you could make it open pipes by taking the plates off. sounded good when on it but holy sh*t the drone at cruising speeds was rediculous. Literly had to yell to talk to a passanger when cruising.

exhausts that exit beneath the car are not great imo

should pop it out the side before the tyre ozzy. Pretty sure its legal on a ute, just has to be rear of the door by X amount.

Y pieces, we must think alike haha.

I've got a 4" electric cutout valve sitting in the shed that I want to have fitted before the first muffler and there's plenty of room there.

Got started on the 5 link install this arvo, so far so good.

Removed the leaf springs, leaf spring mounts, shocks and crossmember. Have the new front mounts in and got most of the other parts pre assembled.

One thing I'd like to warn others about is not to use caltracs if you value your car. The front bracket must rub pretty hard against the chassis rail and has started to wear at it. The way they're designed there is no way to avoid this.

Will throw some pics up once the install is finished.
