I just ordered a new set of stacks for my w900. I didn't want really tall stacks but somehow the only reasonably priced stacks that I found are going to be 13 foot 4 inches off the ground to the top of the pipe.
Anyone else running stacks this tall? Do you have problems with them? I see max height is 14 foot but then I see some saying the max height in Colorado is 13 foot. My dry van is 13 foot tall.
Anyone have issues with running straight pipes? I really debated on this but I don't daily drive my truck and just figured you only live once.... Plus I rarely go through scales.
How tall are your Stacks on your truck?

Here's a tip, make your CB antenna a little higher than your stacks that way you'll know when you don't have enough clearance.My stack reaches the end of my exhaust which is under the truck.I think it's about 14'.

Tips of my stacks are 10'0"...and they've never been a problem.

10'8" on mine. They need to be low to fit in the one cement mill I load at. Otherwise, they'd have been 12'6, like they were from factory
