Default Who's Bent their Muffler and/or Tailpipe, yet?
Answer exactly as the title asks. I will put up a pick of my bent tailpipe and scractched up muffler from the trails once I get off work. Just curious how everyone else is treating their exhaust on the trail.

Happy Jeep'in everyone!

I have bent/dented three total. Two stock mufflers and one Gibson. I now run a custom exhaust that resides entirely above the frame rails and terminates before the rear axle.

add stock exhaust tip bend in mine....pretty easy to repair...but I will be taking a hacksaw and cutting back a little to avoid this issue again.

I crushed my stock tip closed. So I relocated the tip and muffler closer to the body problem solved!

I have scraped my muffler and flattened my tail pipe, but I have a MBRP relocation muffler in the mail. Just waiting for the brown truck.

Tore my muffler off. Had to use pliers to open the tail pipe but did get it re-mounted. It doesn't look right but works for now.

My tail pipe looks like a flat tire......

But I have a new muffler and it sits higher now.

But I still know the sound of rock hitting muffler.... the hollow pang is very distinctive...
