Re: Has anybody cut/ground out their frame to make headers fit?Tried 4 pair now! Pics

Well then, just sell the two sets you bought that didn't fit. Then you should have just about enough money to buy a set that is known to fit. If you keep buying cheap generic headers, you're going to have fitment issues.

I just did a parts search on Summit, and the headers I mentioned above will fit your truck.

Just save up a little more $$ and get a good set of these headers. Once you get them, strip the factory paint and coat them with some good high temp paint and they'll last a long time.

I never thought I would have any problems with such tiny headers. I would love to go name brand and get something really nice but unfortunatly I am on a very strict budget. You see, Im married... So far with this truck I am sitting at about $450 out of pocket. That includes the Running truck, New Headers, new starter and some rewiring. Actually Make that $500 if you include the new cab with title I just picked up yesterday. I am doing all the work with money I make reselling things off of craigslist (Buy, Fix, Resell). I think these headers were less than $100. I guess the old saying stands true... You get what you pay for.
