Dual exhaust

I was wondering if anybody has done a dual exhaust set up other than stacks? I was going to get 4in pipe and make a Y pipe and make a dual set up with 5in tips any advice or pics? I just think if you can make it weld be cheaper than the kits I was think make the Y pipe where the muffler or cat would be any help would be appreciate thanks

I had duals when i first got my truck... I liked them but to be honest, the left(drivers side) outlet pipe really vibrated to the point where if i was idling you couldnt make out what the tip said(mbrp tip)... It sounded really good though being that the sound is on both sides... I ripped it all off, i still have the muffler wanna buy it? lol just went back to single exhaust and am happy.

I had the same problem. Except mine broke loose on a road trip rubbed on my drive shaft and now has a hole. Needless to say i have a single exit. I did love the look and sound tho

I've got my exhaust planned out to where it goes over the axle and then splits for it to dump out both sides. 5" of course. Just gotta wait for the money to roll my way to put this idea to work.

Hope this give you an idea.

PS I'm not running a spare under the bed so that gives me plenty of room to play with back there.
