Chrome stack vertical exhaust

[dieselram]

I was looking into putting the vertical exhaust on my 3120 and I wondered if anyone put the elbow on, drilled the hole then put a chrome stack on instead of the black JD one. I was thinking a stock slip on off a Harley or metric bike would work as long as it didn't have baffles. Anyone do this yet? Pics if you have? I wonder if JD will just sell the elbow and the black ring for the hood?

I would expect JD will make you buy the complete kit with the stack, elbow, and rubber hood ring. Another option would be to have the stack professionally chromed, (yeah that might get costly), or try doing it yourself with some of the Duplicolor or Rustoleum offerings.

I have often thought about getting my exhaust pipe chromed. Anyone see any issues with heat (does chrome exhaust run hotter?)... next to the turbo?

Nobody on here has a chrome stack to share?

My friend Wayne (wayneh) has one on his model "B", looks pretty cool:thumbsup:

I will send him a link to this thread and see if he will post a picture or two...

I appreciate that! I would like to see one on a compact too.

I saw a road mower with a custom 3" stainless exhaust no muffler the other day and wanted it bad

Missouri Thunder, a poster here on TBN, had a chrome stack put on his Kubota BX.

The chrome exhaust stacks for the older tractors are straight pipes that bolt on with four bolts to the exhaust manifold. They are double walled. I actually think it is stainless and not chrome. But, I think it looks good!

Here is one source:

Hope this helps.
