Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) How to Install Stacks in the Bed?

[EGaskamp]

This is my first time installing stacks and wanted to know how most of yall bolted them down in the bed, basicly how yall installed them. What my plans are is to cut a hole in the bottom of the bed and run flex pipe from where I cut the exhaust off underneath the truck into the bed and somehow bolt the Y pipe to the bottom of the bed, I'm guessing and put a 45 cut on the stacks and bolt the stacks to the bed. Sound good? Any suggestions and pictures are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

This is What I did to a 2002 Super duty. from stock exaust, use a length of flex pipe under the bed through a hole cut into the bed, connect the flex pipe to a header pipe inside the bed with 90 degree bends on each end (for the stacks). When mounting the header pipe to the bed you can just fab some brackets ( we used angle Iron welded to the header pipe ) then bolt them to the bed. I am sure someone will chime in with pics or other methods, but this is the simplest way I know how to do it.
