Hi BJ8'ers

We all know that the rear cross boxes on the BJ8 catches the ground exiting
gas stations, especially when the rear end is lowered as mine is.

Three questions are:

1.  If the rear cross boxes are removed and replaced with straight pipes
emerging on the drivers side, is there a big increase in exhaust noise?
Anyone running in this configuration?  Too noisy?

2.  Are the front boxes and hangers of the BJ7 the same as the BJ8?  ie can
the BJ8 system be replaced with the BJ7 thus eliminating the rear cross
boxes?

3.  Who makes decent BJ8 steel branch manifold other than the expensive racing
folks??
