My drivers side tailpipe hanger broke on my 2019 Ram 1500.
How do I replace it?
I have the part.

The crappy part about that is it shouldn’t happen in the 1st place.
The right side which I did replace last year is already corroding badly.
So I believe I am going to look for something aftermarket that might work.

I hear you, an aftermarket solution with a good muffler shop will probably have a more permanent fix for you over some sort of factory option in this case.

I would prefer to not pay someone to do what I can do.
Do you live in a state that doesn’t use salt or calcium chloride on the roads for ice and snow in the winter?
That is what’s turning them into powder

Sure, I prefer to do things myself as well.

No, SoCal really doesn't use any of that stuff, even in the mountains when it snows they rarely use salt here, they use crushed volcanic rock.

Some areas where it's especially snowy they may use a mixture of salt and sand, but not prevelant.

I live in Northern New York near Alexandria Bay,NY and this state has a Bare Roads mandate so they pour the salt and calcium chloride on the roads in the winter.
November 18 2022 the snow came.
72” in about 19-20hrs nonstop.
It took me till the 24 of November to dig out my Yellow Jacket!
Sadly I couldn’t find a winter rat and traded it for my 2019 Ram 5th gen.
I am currently looking for either a Challenger SRT or a Charger SRT.
I have a winter rat now.
We get snow here most winters between 120”-160”+ every winter, however November 2022 we got in my area the most snow I have ever seen in less than 24hrs in the more than 34 years I have lived here.
