Should I replace my headers now = BEFORE any warping and broken bolts?

JBA Long Tube Headers???
Long tubes are a good option,but i didn't think JBA was still making them for the trucks,or maybe it's the Y they aren't making anymore.

When under the truck i noticed that the exhaust pipe travels underneath the Transmission = illogical placement!

Is this standard on these 2022 RAM 1500s or do i have a ill-genetically modified exhaust???

How else could you expect to burn your arm while doing tranny fluid changes?

Sorry, your truck isn't any more special than the others besides being your own. :cool:

Speaking of hot tranny juice, have you explored the greatest heat reduction solution?

You can purchase just the valve assembly for $40 or the bundle with an aluminum cap to replace the plastic OE POS for $75.

As soon as I noticed the exhaust pipe under the Trans i said - MUST review aftermarket Trans Cooler/Upgrade equip.

Thank You for the link

LOVE this RAM 1500 = much quieter inside the Cab then my Tundra and more POWER

Question: Has anyone redirected the exhaust pipe???
