This week I basically rendered my truck inoperable. I had been sitting on a set of JBA 1 7/8" longtube headers to install on my 2012 RAM 2500.
JBA Performance Exhaust Part #:6961SJT*Full length
These headers were advertised to fit my truck. In advanced preparation I cut out my old exhaust and got everything apart.
Went to install these headers and realized THEY WILL NOT fit a 2500 truck, despite JBA's claim that they would. The motor mount location is completely different and the #1 tube on the drivers side makes contact on the motor mount frame side and a bunch of other places. I'm waiting to see what JBA will do for me, but till then my truck is in pieces in the garage and inoperable since I sawed the factory mid-pipe off.....
Did my own investigation and sent JBA the technical information of what I did and how I'm sure these will not fit a 2500 truck....was told they were sending it to R&D, but I still don't see a change in description on their website, and I have been hearing others who have already informed them of the same problem with no action on their part thus far......Waiting to see what JBA will do for me for my trouble and will report back and tell the LONG version of this story.
