48" tall stacks ????
 
I was wondering why nobody runs the longer stacks on there trucks. Every pickup truck I see with stacks have the 36" stacks. I am looking to put stacks on my truck I was trying to see if there is sum reason everyone runs 36". I like the look of the taller ones if anyone has the 48"s can they post a pic or comment thank you.

at what point do stacks become antlers??? ...........personally i think anything 6 inches over the cab is ugly as hell.

ok guys thanks for your un-usefull information. I made my decision. I am going to run the 6x48 aussie or bull haulers. I think stacks hidden behind the cab looks like shit looks like car wash add on chrome. You can not even tell there stax unless you are rite up close to them. But hey too each is own !

People will go certain heights just out of preference. Maybe a majority of people with stacks like 36"...
The main reason is for looks. If it's anything else, maybe they want the noise to be a little higher/lower... preference.

In my opinion, it's rare to find a truck that has stacks that look good (proportional).

well said countrygirl! I just think stax lower than the roof just does not look rite. I have never seen a 379 pete with stacks lower then the roof or any semi isnt that the look stacks are copying on a pickup ? Like having 8 inch stacks on a pickup truck or big chrome wheels on a lifted offroard truck just dont go togather

the reason u hardly ever see the 48s is because most people dont like the look of tall stacks. im one of the ones who dont like real tall stacks thats why i went with a custom stack that juat barely misses the top of the cab, to each there own :tu:
