Will this fit a lifted TJ? They said it wouldnt fit but I dont see why not. I won an exhaust system yet they have nothing to fit the TJ. If anyone has this let me know and how does it sound?thanks

Not sure why it wouldn't fit, it hangs off of the frame...

Probably don't know what they're talking about.

Gibson makes an exhaust for TJs that will work with stock or short arm lifted Jeeps. With my long arms, I had to clock it sideways a bit and weld it in to make it fit.

Edit: You asked about sound. It is loud. Almost as loud as running no muffler (which I had to do for a week). I hate loud mufflers, and for me, the Gibson was a waste of money. I should have had Midas put in a custom exhaust for my long arm. It would have been cheaper, and probably not as loud.
