It should come out the top or through the cab as long as there is no top on the Jeep.........all the Transmission covers have to be off and will normally snake through there under the dash...........I have also seen some take it out the bottom which is possible once the steering wheel has been removed......the Jeep needs to be up in the air pretty high..............it's a tight fit either direction!

That's how I did mine. Had to cut the exhaust though.

My V6 has headman headers and didn't have to remove exhaust pipe. Disconnected drag link, removed steering wheel and unbolted steering box. Jeep was on lift so took it out the bottom. Thanks for the information.
