    You can get a downturn in front or behind the axle. Looks like it might be easier just to add a downturn off of the muffler now.

    Jberry said it didn't drone or put fumes in the cab when I asked him about it - it's what I plan on doing.

    You going to be putting bedsides on there soon? I just talked to Tim last night and he said you will need to get some space between the left (bigger) hose and the two others on the right. He plans to get a write up soon for it, but I think it shouldn't be a problem to figure out. If nothing else, I will be tackling the bed cage in a few weeks.

    I got a 4runner filler neck since it is longer then I cut it and welded it where it would line up with the bedside. Removed about an 1" between two bends. The other two hard lines had to be bent a tad to line up but worked out pretty good. I'll try and snap a picture when I'm on break.
