is it cracked?
01-29-2011
we didnt see any cracks. we cleaned it up before we put it back on.

either your install was faulty or something is damaged.
Sorry.

These things crack like crazy if you didn't know.

Stainless Steel plogs don't, old design ya but not the new logs!

where the red is on the left is there it cracked. right on the weld. a friend of mine can weld stainless so he is going to try and fix it.

JB weld it

not that ghetto round here lol

Do you prefer duct tape and bailing wire instead ?
And honestly after you get that welded i'd sell it if you can and buy headers. They're so cheap anymore...

Just take it off and have an exhaust shop weld it for like 20 bucks or something.
01-31-2011
well i don't have $300 to drop on headers at the moment. and i can have my friend do it for free. hey i know a kid that has the exhaust on his truck held on by bailing wire.
