Classic Mustangs (Tech) Technical discussions about the Mustangs of yester-year.

Is it just me, or does this custom Mustang stationwagon restomod looks awesome?

Going under the axle just doesn't make any sense to me. Why would anyone set it up that way?

in your years of exhaust, did you ever try to to put a 3.5" tube over the axle on a lowered mustang?

I have done 3" and was able to get it over the axle. The problem with going under is that when the rear suspension unloads you will need a bunch of clearance between the bottom of the axle and the pipe which means the pipe will need to be hanging really low. When your suspension unloads does the axle hit the pipe?

it has never hit, theres no marks on either the axle or the exhaust.My suspension is pretty stiff, so there is little travel on normal driving.
