Anybody putting stacks on their 03's or 04's. And if so how does it sound. I have dual 5's on my 2nd gen. flatbed and it sounds awsome. Just wondering if the new ones have some sort of the same effect.

 

And here is a pic of my 04.

 

Fourknee,
That looks pretty cool. How did you plumb it up?
By the way, do you ever get up to Saline Valley?

It is a plumbing nightmare under the truck. Came down to the end of the cab and put a Y in and then went over to the drivers side and back up towards the engine and around the fuel tank and back out the side behind the cab. It took some doing to get it around but it got it done with lots of help though.
I haven't up to Saline Valley in a long time. Use to go all the time for dirt bike rides.

 

I'm considering stacks on my 03' also, don't know if I should run straight or with a muffler. I wish I could hear both ways before attempting though. I have heard others say that it won't sound as good as the older generation motors though. Hope someone has attempted this?

 

i`m considering this as well, but my questions are, 1 do i have to take out my bedliner, 2 can i still have a tool box ,(gullwing type)? 3 how about a toneu(sp)cover? anyone have this? 4 is this easy to do yourself? and 5 was covered, mufflers, or without. ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

 

Fourknee,

Besides dirt bike riding, did you ever go to the hot springs in Saline?
Thanks for the stack info, sounds busy under there.

Wetspirit,
It sounds familiar, but it has been so long i can't remember.

 

I have seen and heard the stacks on the 3rd gen here in ashland it sounded pretty good to me. but wasnt as loud as the 2nd gen. cummins

 

did it have mufflers, or just pipes?

 

i believe it was straight piped with 5" stacks

 

But it was pretty loud right? My motto is you have to hear it before you can see it!!

 

yeah it was pretty loud at take off from the stop it had a low deep tone like a big rig does. But it was still loud all through the powerband

 

Great, thanks for all the help. Now i just have to save up the dough to get the stacks! And to talk my better half into it since i already have the stacks on my 01. Thanks again.
