Gotta run my duals over my axle, what pipe to use?

Any who ran their duals over the rear axle: where did you get the piping from? I ran 2.5" dual exhaust and the mufflers keep hitting the ground, so I'm looking to relocate them in the rear area rather than dumping before the axle.

Thanks deadbird.

To anyone else posting or will post, I know where to get piping. I'm looking for specific model numbers of what they used to get over the axle. I can get alot of angles and weld them together, but I'm sure someone found a place with the pipe thats just the right size that it fits well and is cheap. Also, the pipe is 2.5".

The only way you will accomplish that is to buy two of the correct camaro/firebird exhaust pipes, cut the over axle portion out of them and use that. Ain't going to be cheap though. Similiar to that "$1000.00 ebay 3" exhaust" evryones talking about.

N/p.. I thought you were looking for pipe to fab instead of pre-fab pipe to mod/use for your setup.
