stack question

Does anybody know of somewhere i could get a stack(s) that are like the ones on a cat dozer or other cat equipement. The aussies are close but i just like the rugged look of those industrial stacks.

I used a chop saw set @ 22.5 degs and welded my own. Put a 45 on the other end of the short piece and you're done. Mine went w the dodge but I'm itching to do it to the dmax too.

Its funny you ask that, I have called around all over the place, and they will sell you one brand new but it is a $300 stack from any supplier.

I would just pick up some pipe and make your own. I purcahsed some 8" pipe for my stack for about 80 dollars. If you have a saw to make the cut it would be very easy. I did not have the saw to make the cut, and was being really cheap at the time so I ended up cutting the pipe myself to come to a point.

Here is the link to what I ended up with-https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/forums/my-new-stack-t247335.html?t=247335

Holland Court Diesel out of colorado has that cat stack on white 2nd gen. You could always call them and ask them questions about it.

"Heres is a black painted aussie that i have seen around stephenville "

I think that stack came off of an old UFO that landed there.
