I don't get the whole idea behind stacks. Most look stupid.
Is there any benefit or just a hideous bigrig look?
There's only a couple of dodges and chebbies around here with them. Oh and Jet's PSD, which, IMO, really looks stupid (no offense, not trying to get flamed).

For the whole rust thing, buy a few cans of stove paint, and before you install the system, paint the T and everything that is bare aluminum with it. I did that underneath my truck, and it seems to be holding up well. I think the paint is 5$ a can.

So, my truck looks stupid, huh?
My stacks are what they are for a reason. I'm interested in function, form has never functioned for me.

Ron, this pictures on the internuts is driving me mad. I just don't know what the hell I'm doing. Took me two tries to send Kris a pic (the second time was the wifey).

Why do you keep coming around here trying to start "stuff"? Seems like you're better suited PSN.

Congrats on the stacks Storm you will love them. The pipe in the bed is 5" by the way and reduces down to 4" though the bed and a 4" 90.

What kind of "stuff" am I starting here?

Hopefully not directed at me, Kris as I was simply wondering why my truck looked 'stupid.'

THAT is nice.. I can't wait.. How much slack did you have in the elbow under the bed with the kit? Were you able to drop the elbow down some below the line of the exhaust to the downpipe to make it the lowest point?
