Yeah after I got done with it, I thought it looked good, but after I posted it and looked at it a little more, I noticed that it was too close 
. Oh well, at least it gives you a better idea of what it would look like.
Have a good one,

I like the BackRack/Stacks/toolbox... I want stacks for mine, but need to keep the bed flor clear.
You should have gotten the 7" bull haulers like JD. Those are really growing on me.

I too need bed space, but what you dont see in that pic is the second tool box. I have 34" of useable bed space 
. If I could only have a LWB single cab w/ a 12' bed

Chet, if you do go stacks, keep the toolbox, and have the stacks up above the cab just a little like the first picture. You will lose everything in your toolbox if you dont keep it, and it will keep larger stuff from sliding into the stacks. Whenever I do mine, they're going to be 6" miter cuts, and leave my toolbox in, yes, even with a shortbed, I hardly ever haul anything in the bed.
jrsmokestacks, GREAT looking truck, and stacks also. Looks very nice

Stacks
This is just my opinion, I do not see the purpose of stacks on a Pickup. Does this do anything except add to the looks of the truck? Seems that a lot of moisture would accumulate and get to the motor. Don't get me wrong, I am just not a fan of the stacks on a CTD.

Chet, stay with the 4", just get it straight piped somewhere, even if you have to buy the geno's muffler elimination kit. You dont need 5" unless you are making 500+ horsepower.
