I love my stacks. Some say they're too loud, and they are loud, but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Tips..... Measure, measure, measure and remeasure. Stacks look like *** if the installation isn't spot on.

I think they look awesome, but I don't plan on doing it to mine. I am trying to add things to quiet mine down now. Have enjoyed the loud diesel for a while, now want to make it easy to talk in the cab when cruising down the highway.

as far as the exhaust goes,I didn't eve have to cut mine ( Banks monster 4")..
Got my parts from Truck PRO, used 18" of flex exhaust..I don't care for the Y pipe in the bed so I did this.
Just used a 4x6" steel tube.. and love the sound..one thing I did was cut the tube where the exhaust inters and put a divider in it

All the measuring is for the alignment of the pipes. Looks stupid if one pipe is leaning or the outlets aren't aligned.
