So I need a new exhaust and I am trying to debate how I would it to be dumped. Originally when I got the truck it had exits on both sides behind rear tires on a angle. Didn't mind the look but then I saw people on here who had it dump under their bed and I thought that was slick and clean looking. I also see people who have it exit right in front of the rear tires. So I am not sure which I like best but I have a question regarding this. Is there any CONS of it dumping under the bed? Will it harm anything?

Next is, what would you do? Lol

It all depends on the look you like more.
I was thinking for just in front of the rear tires or side pipes.
But since I got a partial exhaust for free, it either going to be in front of the tires or under the rear bumper, just depends on how much modding I want to do.

Best thing is to look at pics of other trucks with different exits & see what you like.

The only cons i can think of of a dump or turndown is if you live in a dusty place you will be kicking up alot of dust. Not so bad but some people get annoyed by it.

Yea I didn't know if letting it dump under the bed cause any issues to the underside of bed since the heat, and during winter if it'll build moisture under there or not.

If you dump it under the bed, be sure it can't overheat the bed floor, or the differential, both can cause serious problems. I chose to go with Gibsons SS Super Truck exhaust, which exits in front of the right rear tire. It is 3" in, 2 1/2" dual exit.
