Default headers on a 99 ram

Hi i have a question dois any one run headers in the newer rams? I am wanting to put headers on my 1999 dodge ram 4x4. My mech told me that i have to make shure that i get headers with the O2 sencer on it my question is if i get a pair of headers can i tap a hole were the o2 sencer should go? The headers with the 02 sencer on it are way to expencive 550.00 to be exact i can get headers from this one place for 225.00 with out the o2 sencer if i tap out a hole and plug my o2 sencer in every thing should be cool right? I am mechanicly retarded so im just asking a question thanks for any help.......

Just checked my 2000 5.9 4x4 and the O2 sensor is just above the cat. You should be able to run the Gibson header as a direct bolt in. Take a look @ http://www.gibsonperformance.com/Headers.asp

J.C. Whitney has the cheepest price on them

http://www.jcwhitney.com/webapp/wcs/...0614&langId=-1

take a look...

You should be able to get a muffler shop to drill a new hole in a cross over or in the pipe just befor the cat and weld in a threaded plug for the O2.

The o2 will work any where as long as its installed before the Cat.

some have 3 ome 2 and some 1...lol

My 96 has two, 1 pre and 1 post cat. Newer Rams I beleive have 2 pre (1 on each side) and 1 post cat.

If you have one on each manafold now you will need two later...if you just have 1 then you can have the existing O2 put on either side.
