Tailpipe with dana 60

[DreRacing]

I am googeling the hell out of going for the RMS og Gerst suspension on my car.
I also want a dana 60.
Then I read this in RMS pages

Choose rear axle type you'll be using - 8.75/ford 9 allows most 3" tailpipes, Dana 60 will not allow tailpipes

Wtf does that mean? That I dont have room for 3" exhaust with the dana 60? why?

I don't see that, the Dana axle tubes are the same as a 8 3/4.

I don't know what they mean by that but give them a call. The owner himself will most likely get on the phone with you and go over it. One of those rare companies that actually cares about customer service.

Ok I will call them. I can´t see why tailpipes won´t work with dana60

I read somewhere that it has to do with the four link set up and a coil overs.

Coil overs look almost vertical. Right where tailpipes go. My 65 Dodge with TTI 3" tail pipes.
