Re: Barn raising

Fenders? or frame? I am using the original ram horn headers that came with the truck and they work great. They were routed at a 90* bend directly behind the rise in the forward frame rail, about right in line where you see them disappear under the truck. I did not come out from the headers in the wheel well area, the way it works out the side pipes miss the fender and wheel well altogether. It was definitely a custom fit up and not just bolt on item.

I am still trying to get a good sounding video of the truck, just dragging my feet I guess.

Re: Barn raising

well my big concern is if the hooker headers will go low enought to clear the fender but not too low.... I called hooker and they don't even have dimensions

Re: Barn raising

I guess I am not surprised, try Doug Thorley they seem to know more about the product they sell from my experience.
