cool Homebuilt stacks!!!

Hey guys i'm wanting to put a set of stacks on my pickup but i dont want to spend alot of money on it so I was thinking i'd make my own or atleast make the set up and buy the tips. Im sure somebody else has done this before so if you could post some pics for me to look at that'd be great!!!!

I thought of the same thing. For the price you should buy this kit... Silverline Universal Diesel Stack Plumbing Kits

Its 265$ and its the Plumbing Kit for stacks. You still have to buy the stacks. Dont go by the pic they have listed if you look up the part number its a stack plumbing kit for universal apps.

Been there! I would say you can save money that way! Come across some 5 inch elbows and what not and just pieced it together. Looks good!

i went to the scrap yard and took stack of old big rig then ordered a 90 and 45 from a discount muffler sales place. but you have to have fabrication skills with a welder. cost me 70 dollars, but my stack has a few dings.
