Some Stacked F550 Pics
#12
Just thought I would share our latest project with you other Ford guys. Customer runs a hotshot company, mostly equipment. Anyhow, he wanted stacks, and after talking him out of 6" stacks, he let me do my thing. I think they came out quite nice. Had to fab up an upper mount out of aluminum, which matched the bed pretty well. Here are some pics -
Before stacks, pulling it in to relocate the Air Ride compressor and tank.
Front shot, stack less
Side shot, nice and polished!
I used chrome elbows at the bottom and polished stainless clamps, so overall I think it came out pretty clean looking. Josh was pretty excited to say the least.
And a shameless plug for Josh's favorite diesel shop!
We'll see how he likes these miters. He is already thinking of swapping them out for Aussie style stacks. He can't make up his mind. I must say props to Grand Rock for getting everything here intact and not beat to hell. Not a scratch in any of the chrome and you always worry about getting everything you ordered when you order a ton of different pieces. You just can't beat Grand Rock's quality!

The key to keeping the cab quiet with stacks is the height placement. I experimented with mine and learned that if the lower lip of the stack is below the top edge of the cab it gets really loud inside the truck and suffers a lot of drone. I raised mine to have the lower lip of the miter just above the cab and it was a radical difference.
