    What about a cam bearing install tool? Can you use that to install bushing? I know I used that to install my bushings in my TKO3550 long ago.

    Side Exhaust Options

    Did the rear suspension work while still had dumps. Like you I decided I was tired of the fumes and this was the only way.

    Side Exhaust Options

    Yes @General karthief is correct we built it with the rear suspension hanging. Obviously with it sitting on the ground it has alot more clearence between the exhaust and the axle.

    You can always do what I did and do a custom 3" under the axle. This was to clear the anti roll bar.

    I was in something similar a few years back 4 cars...I was the second from the back the guy in the back started it all. I'm not sure how you could have not started it if your in the back?
