[QUOTE="hoeynoey, post: 1539802, member: 20756"] On the way back from a wheeling trip I hit a pothole and my front drive line smashed into my exhaust pipe cracking my exhaust manifold into three pieces. I ordered the Rugged Ridge stainless steel header (mostly because of the price @ 300 bucks) I got super fast shipping from summit racing. I spent all day trying to make it fit, but the way the tubes were bent I had no idea how I was going to get two bolt in because of the distance between the tube and the flange. After hours of working on it I still couldn't get the last two bolts in and there was still a 1/4'' gap on the top of the intake! :mad: Ended up the tubes interfered with the intake. I called Summit and they said I could return it (after they received it) they would give me a refund. I then called Borla customer service and asked them about there warranty. The man I talked to said any crack would be covered and a new header would be shipped to replace the broken one free of charge! The Borla stainless steel header was 100 bucks more, but it was much better looking visually, was better built and came in two pieces for ease of installation. I could not believe how nice it fit. Like a glove! I would recommend Borla to anyone, top notch company! I will not ever buy anything Rugged :fawkdancesmiley: Ridge P.O.S company, in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
