Opinions...Stack/Stacks

Hey everyone,

So I'm throwing around the idea of stack(s) for my truck since I never got around to it on the dually. For the trucks I have seen around here (pickups) that have stacks its dual curved in the front corners. If I do do stack(s) I want it to be a different cut, and either run duals or a single. I have an old Aussie style kickin' around my place so I took some pictures with it in my box.

If I run duals, I will go with Aussie Cut, angled out towards the sides/back in the corners of the box. If I run a single I will have it right of the window (basically wherever the exhaust comes up from underneath). If it's Aussie, straight back and if it's Miter (unsure if I want Miter), straight back too

Here are some pics, what do you think?

I think a SRW Cummins should have a single Mitre stack.

I think that would look perfect, if it was a wee bit shorter.

Ahh. Beautiful!!! Haha.

I think shortbeds should have a single, preferably a mitre. But 6" minimum.

Longbeds usually look better with dual stacks.

Duallys look better with curved, aussie, bullhaulers than anything else. Those three just dont fit a single rear

Maybe on the dually flat bed!

Here is a pic of a shorter Miter Cut single:


I think what I might do is install the plumbing and my 5" Aussie this weekend and run that to see how I like it. Then, maybe the beginning of the week I will order a 6" Chrome Miter

That looks good.

When looking from the front of the truck, the tallest part of the stack should barely be visible over the roof. Maybe a half of an inch or so.

This one is definitely my favorite so far.

I'm kinda leaning towards that myself as well. I have never seen it done (could be out there though) and no one in Ontario Canada would have this style probably.

I think I will lower it a bit, so that the stack is just showing above the cab, something like this; If I don't like it, then I could always change it later

Thanks for the pictures graphite! Is yours straight up from the exhaust plumbing underneath, like you have one 90?
