Shynon 7,459 #51 Posted February 1, 2014 This tractor has had a stack on it for about 25 years now. Has not broke or cracked. Most Kohlers the nipple is so rusted into the block you can not get it out. I'm no expert but just my 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zanepetty 117 #52 Posted February 1, 2014 Cool. That's a long time! I'm worried about mine but I guess it might have been alright on mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hodge71 664 #54 Posted February 4, 2014 Zane, Mine was silver and I painted the entire system with 1200 degree header paint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zanepetty 117 #55 Posted February 4, 2014 Looks good. Not sure if I want mine black or silver or if I don't want to paint it. It will probably look better if I do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 993 #56 Posted February 5, 2014 I like stacks a lot,my tractor seemed to have more power compared to the cheap pepper pot I have on it,but can be very bad to the engine if you hit a tree with it like I did,it happened so fast I coulnt believe it,it was braced very well but broke my factory elbow,so for a worker in the woods or cutting grass around trees,or plowing snow near trees I don't recommend it,but for open area they rock Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wheelhorsekid 141 #59 Posted February 5, 2014 I Personally use pipe from TSC with mandrel bends, And on my d-250 I also use the same muffler that TT use's, I don't like using the Black pipe fittings because to me they look like a plumbing job that went wrong What size tire are you running in this picture?
