A 10 second photoshop job... something like this is the way I'd like to go, I've always been a sucker for the dual chrome tip side exits...

I attached it because I didn't see any point in hosting this pic...

remember on these trucks if you want to do dual exits on the back you're gonna have to take the spare tire off. i saw one guy on youtube route them through the leaf spring packs. which is just plain stupid. if you ever go offroading and you bottom out those packs, say goodbye to those expensive tips. duals sound nice if done the right way and i would go single in dual out off the muffler, cheaper, still looks about the same on the exit and still sounds good

You didn't look at the pic I posted did you? Dual exits with the spare in place.

Having a 2 dr, I wouldn't have to worry about that...

And with Kyle's pic... neither would the OP (if he has a 4dr because I don't remember lol)... my way would be single in, dual out with the tails running parallel with each other and bending down and out in the stock location... lots of room for play.

i was saying a 4dr, and on a truck that i worked on at the shop. the muffler shop that had installed the exhaust routed the pipes to close to the spare, ended up ruining a spare,

Crappy install doesn't mean that it isn't possible to do properly. You might want to remember that one experience doesn't make a task impossible.

i suppose if you ran like 2" pipe or smaller you might be able to swing it. for the street you'd be alright, but if i was upgrading i'd want at least 2.75 or 3", and it would be really tight.

hmmm I like how that looks, but infront of the rear tires, not so sure about the Hollywood Exhaust on a blazer ... ehhhh not so sure
but that does look good, hidden a bit yet noticable

Ever heard of a heat shield? And 2.5" duals is overkill on this engine. Why would you want to go larger?
