Just so I'm clear, are you saying your Over Axle pipes won't fit any Magnaflow Axle back system?
These Over axle pipes will fit any Axle back that hooks to the stock over axles
Will not fit cat back systems
Its all good, just don't want OP to order and it not resolve his issue and cause more headache due to the confusion.
I know that It won't work with the catback... I'm going to try some redneck shit within the next couple of days, if that doesn't work then I'll be getting the OAP's and some quiet ass axle backs. The 1.875" LTs o/r x and 3" comp catback is getting a little obnoxious
Thanks Eric, that's what I was assuming, but wanted to confirm. My understanding is that systems like the Magnaflow Catback system, include both the axle back mufflers and basically a new set of "over axle pipes". I'm not sure why someone would buy a Cat back and buy a set of Over axle pipes. :shrug:
Bought the catback when I had the prokit springs, now on sport lines they hit the axle. Only reason I wanna switch
Got it, makes sense.
This thread is kinda aggravating me , I just bought a set of these last week and it didn't say revised on the website and the guy I spoke with on the phone told me they were not being revised and they were as revised as they were going to get and now you post this ....I put them on and really the only thing that im having an issue with is the breather cap on the axel hits the pipes on certain bumps. Ill make it work im not trying to send them back I just wish your sales people on the phone knew what the hell they were talking about I would have waited to get these. And one more thing the male ends of the over axel pipes was a little bigger than the stock ends and mating with the jba axelbacks was not real good.

Whenever I'm doing exhaust work, I always use a lift that you have to drive on as opposed to one that lifts the car by the jacking points. Pipes that look nice and tucked away with the wheels hanging may look considerably different when the axle is pushed back up. My .02
How bout when your cheap and do everything on jack stands in the driveway
Put the jack stands under the axle and everything is positioned as it would be on a lift.
When I first installed the pipes and mufflers, it fit good. For some reason, when I installed my xpipe, I developed the same problem as you where the axle vent was hitting. I wound up loosening all the clamps on the drivers side and dicking around with it till it was in a suitable position. I then tightened everything back down. If I were to hit a really big bump at speed, it would probably still hit but for normal use, it's fine.This thread is kinda aggravating me , I just bought a set of these last week and it didn't say revised on the website and the guy I spoke with on the phone told me they were not being revised and they were as revised as they were going to get and now you post this ....I put them on and really the only thing that im having an issue with is the breather cap on the axel hits the pipes on certain bumps.

1st i just want to let you know all we did was change the Part number on the webstore to say revised. You got the last set we had instock of the 1st batch of revised pipes.
I was getting 5-10 emails a day wanting to know where these the revised units. So basically i was trying to head off all the emails by creating a new part number.
So what im saying is you have the Gen 2 pipes it was just listed on the site as regular over axles.
Hope this clears it up. The whole pre order thing is since we are making another run we just want to have a few sets spoken for thats all
Thanks guys
EDIT: Also im sorry you were having any kind of issue with the JBA axle backs. We use as close to the factory tolerances as possible. But as you know there are like 20 different companies that make axle backs. Everyone's Machining process may be a little different.

Thanks for your response here. Like i said its not a big deal i really like the sound and look under the car now. I think the issue with it hitting the breather cap is with the brackets on the JBA mufflers themselves and can be solved by bending them up a little. Clearance every where else was very good and just to clarify its not slamming the breather cap just a tink so i think by adjustinng the axelbacks them selves will solve that. Not really worried about the JBA's either the clamp sealed any open spaces

I'm guessing that I got the revised units since they clear better than the oem units. I installed the JPC headers, Ford Racing x pipe, JPC over the axle pipes and the Bassani axle backs. The quality and fit of everything is amazing, couldn't be happier with everything including their tune. JPC FTW!
