stacks? :)
 
Hey I'm planning on making a snorkel and I am going to use it to say the least so I'm going to raise the exhaust and a idea popped in my head since my Jeeps chopped could I run stacks through the floor of the cargo area? Any ideas or tips?

I got a tip, DON'T DO IT! No, haha, if its what you want whatever man. It'd definitley be unique.

It would be wierd haha. I take it you have a gas engine though, not sure how cool 2.5" stacks would look, unless you ran </=2.5" back almost the full distance than to a 8" so it doesnt affect anything.

MATT 87 CHEROKEE 03-24-2011 11:23 AM

Ya I would step it up to atleast 8, I wouldn't call them stacks with 2.5 pipes, I do a lot of fab and I know I could make it look good

Well I want pictures haha

not to discourage you, but you're definitely going to have to address the heat and exhaust fumes issues

it i think would be different but 8 inch would be to big around dont now if you guy remember the old v ettes had side pipes with heat shield they were abou three inch around with heat shields and about the correct length http://www.jegs.com/i/Patriot%20Exha...0002/-1?CT=999

And to think I thought I may be the first person to put stacks on a chopped xj (well maybe 2 stacks)... most people are not dumb enough to chop there xj and almost no one sees pipes on a 18 Wheeler and thinks hmmm I am going to put those on my Cherokee...

For heat I'm not worried as long as I don't put it near somthing flammable, and for fumes it will be above the roof line I don't see why fumes would be a issue, and please feel free to discourage me I'm hard headed enough to do it anyways the worst you can do is prevent me from doing somthing I would regret later or somthing I didn't think out very well

functional stack= ok..... stupid big chrome ones= go buy a dodge and pretend you own a mack

if you want to do it do it like the red one in the picture that way it will make sence and be fully funtional

Well its purely for function, I have made fun of gas trucks with stacks but at least I have a excuse for puting them on my jeep... and they are going to be big if I'm going to spend the money ill make sure they are the biggest ones I can afford (for the cool factor) and I'm going to run 2 stacks not 1, I may run them together up the center of the jeep not the sides, as for the chrome my xj came with every chrome option and it does not have a single part that is chrome now so it doesn't take much to figure out how I feel about chrome, but on a jeep that is all black chrome stacks may look nice, it comes down to price.. just to make myself clear I don't think chrome belongs on Jeeps in most cases

chrisquested 03-24-2011 03:20 PM

Yea i honestly think you should put a 2.5 inch stack (or stacks) on the jeep not no 8 inch...

Now put your snorkel on, Raise you exhaust through the cargo area and drive it through some deep water make sure some one takes pics! and have a blast!
