Default Low Exhuast??

Is this how low an O/R H-Pipe should hang? Seems low to me, this is with a 1.5in drop in the front.

I have a BBK O/R H pipe on mine with a 2" drop and it doesn't sit as low as that.

wow! that is really low, i have an o/r h and mine doesn't hang near as low as that, but i still have the 4X4 look too[:'(] have you tried loosening it up, pushing it up as far as you can and tightening it back up yet?

but doesnt that put more stress on the manifolds? so when you do scrape something you're more likely to crack them?

thats way too low. hita nice bump and u may just tear those babies apart. hole in the exhaust is never a good thing. i had something similar happen to me. somehow my L/T got banged up (i guess i ran something hard over...dont even remember) and i noticed quite a bit of drop in performance. finally found out the problem and had to order a whole new set. sucked bigtime.
