3rd Gen Pass Drop SAS Owners: Question on Exhaust/Link Set Up
***EDIT*** Should have mentioned this is on a 3rd Gen 4Runner....****So...not sure any SAS owners on the site have passenger drop, but if so....how much trouble was the exhaust on the passenger side in terms of clearance for the tcases (dual Marlins in my case), driveshaft and front diff?
Has anyone moved it over via a new crossover pipe to the driver's side to get more room (and if 3 linked, the upper link over the diff)....and do you have any pics?
Also, it looks really tight under my chassis with the IFS stuff in the way.
Is there some reason everyone does a 3 link/panhard over a dual triangulated 4 link....or is it simply b/c XX 4 links and traditional steering boxes/draglinks induce bump steer? I'm going to run full hydro and would like to avoid the panhard stress and odd arc by going 4link instead...assuming there's room.

I know this is an ancient thread but did you ever get this completed? My 2nd gen blew a head gasket and I'm looking to move all the goodies onto my 3rd gen but running into the same concerns as you, will the exhaust cause issues? I will end up tearing apart and trying but it would be nice to hear from others before doing all the test work. Nothing I've been able to dig up addresses the issue that I can find.
