Funny thing is where I lded. at in Kernersville Fri. behind the Deere plant, I was told remember to tape your stack.

Loaded at agco yesterday.
Bol says 'all vertical exhaust must be taped and must remain taped during transport'
Kid was up there taping it before I could even check my gauges....

I was just getting ready to ask this question.
I never bothered with it when I did lowboy work, and never had a turbo blow. So I'm personally leaning toward "old wives' tale".
Even more so if the exhaust faces the rear of the truck.
Now, for the reasons of keeping water and animals out of it, that might make a bit of sense, especially if you're going a long way with it.rank Thanks this. -

The wind blowing across the pipe opening will create a vacume. Next time you have a drink with a straw blow across the top of the straw and the liquid will start to rise up about out of the straw. I can see it easily spinning a turbo.
Rodents love spinning wheels.
