Stacks

I would like to finish my exhaust system. I currently have 4" straightpipe from the turbo downpipe, ending about 2' behind the cab. (sound sooo sweet !)

I would like to go to 5" stacks, but here are the problems: i would like to put the Y pipe under the bed so as not to interfere with hauling. there doesn't appear to be enough room,plus there is a cross member right in the way. Do i need to put a body lift on to make enough clearance between the frame and bed ? thought about making a "crossover tube" out of 3x5 tubing,but crossmember is still in the way. How'd you guys do it? thanks...
