Stacks Question sorry
Finally got my grand rock stacks in today and am putting them on tomorrow hopefully. But a guy at work said that having stacks will screw up my trans if I didn't have a built one. Is this true I don't really see why it would be any different than what I am currently running with the 4 inch into duals. Is this guy just blowing smoke. I think I have a built trans anyways just don't want to fry it. Sorry for the dumb question

The only dumb question is an unasked one. That said, this will absolutely cause no tranny issues except from the fun you will be having with the new exhaust. He is the dumb a**.

they only way they are going to hurt your tranny is from all the extra driving you will be doing just so you can listen to your truck.
