Post up a picture of your truck and get someone to photoshop them in for you.

IMO, stacks should only go on diesels. The point of stacks is so that the soot cloud from the diesels dont get in the way of the car behind you. But I have to admit, elementsenjoi's truck looks good with em. I guess if you just keep em small and dont get huge pipes it will look alright.

the only point of stacks is to keep the smoke from obscuring the line at a drag strip, I've seen trucks end up with a "reaction time" of 8.xx seconds and 7.xx "qt/mile"

Peterbilt is just a name of a truck manufacturer, like Ford or Chevy or whatnot...

There are PLENTY of truck manufacturers.

stacks

Leave the stacks for the big boys toys not a gas ranger that is so getto. not to mention that they serve no purpose. Thats like putting 4in. tips on a 2 1/2 in. pipe. Just my two cents.

I think they look a bit odd on a truck as small as the ranger. IMHO they only really work on bigger trucks.
