    Just put a set of 7”x 8’ miter cuts on my W9L and was wondering what you guys use to keep the rain out of your stacks when not driving?

    Make yourself the hinged cover that goes over it permanently- Very nostalgic...Plus I Love the Look and the little Ting ting you get at idle.

    Had them on my 85' Ford LTL9000 Very Cool to have. Mine were Flat cut tho- Im sure you can make them or get them made for a miter cut

    Those stacks are reserved for people that have a barn or garage to park in...

    Never thought of that, sounds good though. We always just used clappers, got 'em on all the farm tractors too.....

    Yep, I got them on several of my tractors that have straight stacks. I seen the ones for the miter cut stacks on 4-States and they’re around $120 a piece for 7”. I got plenty buckets and long sticks.

    They actually make those for miter but they look like complete crap going down road.
