Yes the stacks are functional, I don't like exhaust exiting under the truck on a mud rig. Worst case scenario(and really unlikely on a truck this tall at a our pit) but if the truck were to die in lots of water it could take on water. but I have the factory air cleaner, so I'd still be in trouble. And no, I didn't lift it anymore...could be from being on the driveway instead of overgrown grass LOL. The thing up front is an old truck mud flap and really serves no purpose

Hey ZPMZS2: don't get rid of that baby blue color. I had an 87 with it an go rid of it and have missed it since.... It's uglier than hell when you have it but you'll miss it when it's gone.
