What Does an Exhaust Stack Do?
An exhaust stack, also known as a truck stack or bed stack, is a vertical extension of a vehicle's exhaust system. It serves several purposes, including:
- Enhancing the appearance of the vehicle with a distinctive and aggressive look.
- Redirecting exhaust gases away from the vehicle's cabin, reducing the risk of exposure to harmful fumes.
- Increasing the exhaust system's height to prevent water and debris from entering the exhaust pipe, particularly in off-road or muddy conditions.
Exhaust stacks are a popular aftermarket addition, especially among truck enthusiasts and those looking to customize their vehicles for both style and function.
What Are the Benefits of Exhaust Stacks?
Adding exhaust stacks to your vehicle can offer several benefits:
- Improved Aesthetics: Exhaust stacks provide a unique and eye-catching look to your truck or vehicle, enhancing its visual appeal.
- Reduced Cabin Exposure: By extending the exhaust pipe vertically, exhaust stacks help redirect harmful fumes and pollutants away from the vehicle's cabin, promoting a safer and more comfortable driving experience.
- Off-Road Durability: In off-road or muddy conditions, exhaust stacks help prevent water and debris from entering the exhaust system, reducing the risk of damage or blockage.
- Distinctive Sound: In some cases, exhaust stacks can modify the exhaust note, providing a unique and aggressive sound that enthusiasts appreciate.
How Much Does an Exhaust Stack Cost?
The cost of an exhaust stack kit can vary widely based on factors such as size, material, brand, and additional features. Here's a general price range to consider:
- Basic Exhaust Stack Kit: Entry-level kits typically start at around $100 to $200. These kits may include the stack pipe and basic mounting hardware.
- Mid-Range Kits: Kits with additional features or made from premium materials can range from $200 to $500.
- High-End and Custom Kits: Custom exhaust stack kits or those designed for specific performance purposes can cost $500 or more.
