Headers
I got a crack in the headers of my 75 f250. It’s just before the headers connect to the exhaust. Do you guys think this is repairable or should I just replace them. I am trying to keep the spending to a minimum. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

X3 weld it up, or get a exhaust shop to weld it up. Are you hanging header mufflers off the headers un supported by chance?

Seems like once they crack and you weld it back up its just beginning of a never ending story.

Agreed. Jegs has affordable headers that will probably fit your truck.
