i was wondering how much round about cost it would be to have shortys installed to the collectors for the 5.9 in my durango? anyone here pay a shop to do them?

 

I took me 3-4 hrs to install them in my Ram, how long it takes to install them in a rango I have no idea. Why not ask this question in the appropriate area on DF like the Durango area.

 

cause its 5.9 and not enough people in durango part to get answersive owned my ram for 6 years my 5.9 so i coe here for motor questions

 

Depends on how bad your exhaust manifolds are andhow rusty your collectors are

 

If you want to pay someone to do it..... call some of the local shops, ask them what they would charge. Installing shorties is really no different than replacing with stock manifolds, as they are direct bolt ons....

You are probably looking at 3 to 5 hours labor, plus 20-30 bucks for miscellaneous shop supplies and such.

 

Took my cousin and I around 3 hours total to put my shorties in. Tho we didn't have any exhaust pipe tooling and I have an exhaust leak on both collectors since they are not far enough apart for them to sit straight into my headers.

 

Took me around 8 hours to do mine but my manifolds were in ROUGH shape

 

One tip...I soaked all my manifold bolts with Royal purple penetrating oil, twice. That made a HUGE difference. Never had one bolt snap at all.

 

Have you even asked this question this in the Durango section yet?
