I installed my GN hitch yesterday with the stock exhaust on the truck and it hits severly. The instructions say that it may take some MINOR bending of the hangers to make it not hit. Right now it is lodged so hard against the hitch that it is not rattling, but I will never get the MBRP in there. I am debating just dropping the exhaust out in front of the rear axle to avoid hitting anything. I have seen some Ford dually trucks with it coming out the pass side matching the fender line which looks pretty good. However with our round fenders this is not possible. Just looking for some thoughts or pictures.

With power adders you're gonna soot up the side too! Neet idea, I've seen a few and like the look, but just too many drawbacks.

even with a muffler in front of the rear tire is loud real loud and drones quite a bit

What kind of hitch are you using? I have a B+W turnover ball and it does not interfere with the stock exhaust at all.

I'm using a UnaGoose. It's rated very heavy, but with that comes larger bracing under the bed. I will try to get it in there first but I don't know how well 4" is going to work.

Gray Max, I also have the B&W and have it installed with Kennedy's 4" - 5" system. No problems at all. The B&W is rated at 30k pounds.
