Hello, i'm new here and not entirely sure I am posting this in the correct location. So if I'm out of place, please let me know.
I am purchasing a 2005 Ram 2500 Hemi 4X4. The truck has had one catalytic converter stolen and one of the exhaust manifolds is cracked. So my first course of action is to make the necessary exhaust repairs. In doing so I would like to replace stock manifolds with headers. I would prefer long tubes but would be plenty satisfied with shorty's if necessary. My problem is I can find LOTS of stuff for 2WD 1500's and some other for 2500 2WDs and also some 1500 4WD's, but nothing so far for the 2500 4WD Hemi.
Does anyone know of headers to fit this truck or maybe even what the differences would be between a 1500 4X4 and a 2500 4X4. Minor modifications i can handle, such as cutting the Y pies, rewelding, etc. I cant cut and rework the headers around Differentials, steering shafts, etc. If nothing is made exactly for this truck(within reason) is there anything made for a slightly different unit that I can modify to make work on this unit (say made for a 1500 4x4 that I can rework fairly easily to fit this 2500 4x4)?

 

You want to be in the Third-Gen Ram section. I will move this there for you.

Thank you, and sorry; I was getting my trucks mixed up. My old truck was a 1996 Ram 3500 Cummins. I really miss that truck....
I hope i enjoy this (new to me) truck as much as i did the old one.

 

Look for ones that will fit a 1500 mega.
