And is your exhaust tight and solid on the hangers going towards the back? The reviews are good for these but I also see some reports of cracking. I really don’t want to have problems after doing the install. Thanks.

    Hello. I am wanting to install the same headers on my Ram. Some people on forums are saying those are not good headers and they have problems. I was reading the answers u gave on the comments here and you seem to have non-issue other than the loose bolt which u fixed with thread fastener. As of the end of 2020, are you still happy with the headers? They cost around 350 bucks and I don't want to spend so much for the other brands, around 800 bucks. Thanks for that video by the way.
