stacks

What do all you guys do that have stacks open on the top when it rains or snows

i havent had mine on in the winter but in the rain i dont cover them. a lot of water has to get in the to go up the dp and cause trouble

I've heard that when they get a bunch of water or snow in them the heat and liquid dissolves a bunch of soot in the pipes and then the pipes $hit all over your bed and trailer, making a huge mess.

Kinda makes me want hinged stacks. That would be so cool

we use 5 gallon buckets over our big trucks cause we have had issues with the rusting out before

I think if you went to the lowest point of the stacks and drill a small hole in the bottom the water would drain.

Thats the most common thing amongst most guys with stacks that get alot of rain, all you have to do is just drill a really tiny hole in the bottom of your 90* that goes up into your bed

I dont cover mine, but it is parked under shelter. If I'm out somewhere and get cought in the rain....I dont worry about it. I have started putting rags held on with zip ties on the stacks after washing my truck. That way no soot gets on the truck. It dosent really make a mess in the rain....the rain washes it off.

stack flaps?

alright thats what iwas wondering i wasnt worried about it going up the the down pipe tho! haha just figured it would rust the 90 corners out eventually and wondered what you guys did to prevent that a small hole sounds right but in montana it snows alot haha i dont think i hole will help that

I've been around 18-wheelers my whole life and we never done anything to protect against rain or snow. The only negative I can see is eventual rust on the inside, but that will happen regardless.
