<div class="bbWrapper">One thing I loved about my 1500 Ram was the factory duals out the back.Been looking around for a month and seems like the only dual system out the back is Flowmaster.All the exhaust shops I have found can&#039;t bend anything over 3&quot;.Was thinking about 3 1/2 inlet dual 3 outlet that way my local guy could bend ,my only worry being would this setup restrict the engine? Opinions and thoughts welcome</div>

I did have dual exhaust on my 99 2500, but I had it exit out each side at a 45 behind the rear wheels, that one wasn’t too bad.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Used my 1500 all the time to tow my YXZ never bothered by the exhaust,guess I&#039;m just used to it since most of my vehicles over the years I put &quot;duals&quot; on</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">MBRP lists two different dual side exit exhausts for the HD trucks. Aluminized and Stainless. Says they are a 4&quot; exhaust but not sure if that carries into the tail pipes or not.</div>
