Well its about time that i do something to my dodge again and i think I might as well just throw some stacks on it! But I can not make up my mind on which style of stacks that i want. A couple of my friends have turnouts which i like but id like to do something different, but can not make up my mind. Post which you like. Miter or Turnout. Pics are good too!

P.S. And yes, i did use the search button... many many times..

Will one of the mods put this in the high performance forum please, I seem to have put it in the wrong one...sorry.

 

That's a very personal decision. To me the stack style has to match the truck. I like mitre cut stacks that end 8- 10 inches above the roof on a 2nd gen 2500. My truck will have turnouts aimed 45 degrees back because I think that's the best look for a 1st gen.

 

Here is a pic

 

Did you know you can search in the photo gallery for keywords? Might turn up something that way.

 

Yep. Works OK, got 4 pages. https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...hen=&whenterm=

 

Miter cuts ending maybe 1" above the top of the cab. That would look .

 

I'm thinking theres a single 5" flat top in my future....


Between miter cuts and turn outs I'd go with miter cuts.

 

You have the same pickup as me, which is very nice I might add. I'd go with the miter cuts ending about 2" about the cab. This is what I plain on doing once my 4" duals get old.

 

1st gen 3/4 tons look pretty good w/ turnouts...

2nd gen dualies look good w/ turnouts

ALL dualies look good w/ turnouts...

ALL trucks look good w/ miter cuts

2nd gen 3/4 tons look good w/ miter cuts

2nd gen 3/4 tons DON'T look good w/ turnouts!

I had turnouts on my 2500, and they looked like bunny ears...

I'm about to put miter cuts on it

well i think im leaning toward the miter cut. Who sells them pretty cheap? I checked ebay but all i could find was the turn outs. theres a pair of turn outs for 65 bucks right now. 5x36

 

that same guy has miter cuts every now and then...

I got all my stuff here: http://www.usatruckpartsonline.com/index.html

Ed is a really good guy, and they have the best prices I've seen anywhere, and their shipping costs are low too.

I JUST finished up my install... took me about 7-8hrs to get everything just right, but I'm VERY pleased!!!

I'd go miter cut. Turnout looks a little redneck to me....

Good one HOHN - having stacks on a pickup is definitely redneck - I otta no ..... My vote .....

 

I'd go miters. Check around with the local trucking places, they will probably have a few old ones laying around that got bent or something. Just cut the good part out. You only need about a 33-34" piece.

Kurtv, that is just plain AWESOME! You have no idea how jealous I am

 

Insert Alan Jackson:

It's alright to be a redneck....it's all right to ride 'round in a dirty old truck, catch a bunch of fish and shoot a bunch of duck... it's alright, its alright, its alright to be a redneck now.... ba bu bum ba bu bum...
