Let's hope not. First set of JBA's only lasted maybe 15K miles before I noticed a leak.

Glad they sent me both, as both were cracked. Getting pretty good at doing a header swap on this vehicle.

Just a quick update on this issue. It took two months of waiting, but JBA sent me a replacement set of headers. I only asked for the passenger side, so I feel like they went above and beyond. Now I just have to find to to replace the cracked one.

I replaced my cracked stock manifolds with JBA shorties and now the JBA header on my passenger side has cracked and sounds worse than when the stock ones cracked. It's so bad, I can hear the tick while driving on the expressway. JBA has agreed to replace the cracked header, but I am going on...

My pan is pretty rusty too. Rusty enough that when I noticed it, I was shocked. It's not as rusty as yours though. I have a 2019 with 104K miles.

Here is an update on my shorty header install. I replaced the cracked stock manifolds with JBA 1961S 3JS shorty headers and I noticed a leak after about 3-4 months. I retorqued and that didn't improve the leak. I removed the passenger side header yesterday and noticed that it's cracked. I...

I recently replaced my stock exhaust manifolds with JBA shorty headers on my 2019 with 5.7L, due to cracked exhaust manifolds. I had purchased Remflex gaskets (p/n 6022) to install, but noticed that the holes in the headers did not match up with the holes in the gaskets. More specifically...

I just noticed this the other day too on my 2019.

That's the same bolt that broke on me too!! You have a lot of thread showing to grab on to, at least. I had to have my buddy use his acetylene torch to get it hot enough to back it out. Propane torch wouldn't get it hot enough.

Shorties are about 4-5 times the cost of manifolds.

At least my manifold bolts aren't broken! Lol. Dealt with that twice on my 4th gen.

I finally tore into my 2019 Ram 5th Gen Hemi that has had some exhaust leaks since about the 37K mile mark (at least). The truck currently has 66K and sounds like an old beater. I had assumed the ticking that I could hear under the hood were broken exhaust manifold bolts, but after...

I spoke too soon. My truck is leaking again. Worse than before the "fix".

Not true. This was the first time I took mine in for the problem. Ls15, I just replied to your PM with contact info. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I just had mine replaced out of warranty last week. Great experience and hassle free. They even hooked me up with a loaner. Truck had 42K miles at the time. PM me and I will get you in contact with someone directly in customer care.
