With some of the loader setups back then(Pippin,Wagner),I'm surprised there was any room left for a vertical muffler. Even with a stack thats 6" above the head of the operator,I'm sure in windy conditions,exhaust smoke (diesel) and fumes can still be blown back into the operators face.Unless you drive over an underground air pocket I cant see how underslung fumes can be brought more than 6' up to the operators nose(I can understand that with a cab it could trap fumes). Minivans and SUVs use underslung exhausts,and those tailgates open up and stay open with long cargo inside.I dont read of too many occupants dying of carbon monoxide poisoning these days. As for flammability....Yes,I can imagine that an underslung system would spark dry materials rather quickly,but they do sell spark arrestors.....dirt bikes have to use them,and tractors should too.
