A lot of the time around here it's done to make their trucks look like it has a long travel suspension. Rear end sits lower because they tune their suspension to be softer so that it absorbs the landing from a jump or dips out in the desert. Also, most prerunner trucks around here have a Long travel suspension in the front, but only a mid travel in the rear due to cost.

LOL i have 2" duals and was looking at 3" tips, everyone here gives me **** about my small exhaust.

2" exhaust will flow more than enough for a smallblock.

These bitches will drive around with 2 1/2 inch exhaust straight pipes on 2000 +model trucks and the outlet will be 1/2 inch. sounds awful.

This is the only time a truck should be "squating" as they call it here.

My dad tried talking me into pinched pipes when I was a kid. 2" duals with cherry bombs, flared out to 2 1/2", then back to 2" at the tailpipes. I went with the cherry bombs, but ran a full 2 1/2" dual exhaust all the way out the back.
