I have seen kits availiable, but they are way overpriced (yet simple straight forward). Fabbing will save you a lot of money in this area (as I know; I am in the process of gathering the supplies)

they also don't come up in the corner of the bed... the come up right over the exhaust and then run a couple 90* elbows to get the pipe to the corner... which kills one of the great things about a single stack, you still have 4 feet width at the front of the bed

I would think that if you went to a truck dealer or parts center you could do it a lot cheaper. I was just in there getting a block heater plug and noticed they had a 5" stack and it was only 20" long or so and when I get my 5" system installed I am goona go and buy it to put on as a turn down tip they also had one that was about 36" long I was thinking I could also do that and put the tip straight out the back instead of out behind the tire so the rocks don't do as much damage and keeps cleaner?? Can't decide

if you run it up in the corner of the bed you would have to go under the frame think i got maybe 75$ in my single bought the stack off of ebay for 55$ to my door (got it in 2 days ), got 6 ft of flex, a useless 90* elbow, 4 clamps, and a litlle weldin on the stack and it was done.

Try Airflo.com, I just ordered everything I need for my stacks as far as plumbing goes because my local semi dudes in the area want $90 for a 90* and $178 for a "T"...

3rd gen trucks have to come striaght up into the bed from the exhaust pipe...

i had a 6" bull hauler...its in the closet on the patio now. I got all the parts needed at a Mack truck shop. cost me about $200 getting good clamps and all the elbows. only required welding in 2 places. i'll be getting rid of my stack soon....just couldn't stand not having a toolbox. still have all the good parts needed for the new owner to install it.

check out my gallery - I put in about 200 bucks by the time you count bolts, brackets, and material. I love it, and mine is quiet - just over stock, but with a growl.
