How did u fix it and did it turn out well? Because my shop even though they say they can fix it I’d feel better taking it to someone who actually did the exact same thing themselves. Let me know. Willing to pay very well

My performance shop said they can’t weld the bolt back on, I know this is possible obviously cause you guys did it. So does anyone know a welder in the miami area that I can go to? I would appreciate all the help I can get. edit: nevermind just misheard my guy lol, performance shop isn’t sure...

wow looks like a great fix, i am no where near experienced enough to do this myself abut ill keep this in mind in case my performance shop doesnt know what to do tommorow morning, thanks! for now i like the option of just welding the broken bolt back on and retightening the nut again.

yea got it was just asking to know. I will see what my performance shop sais tommorow and update you guys, wish me luck.

So can it be welded to the hood reliably then?

Makes sense thanks, well hopefully my shop can find a fix or someone else can weld my broken bolt back on…

Anyone done this or consider it? Is it a good option? If somone can’t weld the broken bolt back on so I can put the nut/washer back in then I may have to consider this… Would it be fine? I also kinda just don’t like the hood being held by such weak shitty bolts so this would make me feel better too

He welded a new piece of rod onto the broken part? That sounds like an easy fix. Or did he take out the old broken bolt and put a completely new one in?

Did anyone else get these fixed recently, if so how did you do it? Was welding the broken bolt back on fine? (Pictures and guide would be appreciated so I can tell my performance shop)

Welp add me to the list, I hate ford for even using these in the first place. Gonna go to my performance shop and they’ll see if they can fix it if not does anyone know somone who can fix it for me in the miami florida area?

Okay so long story short I overtightened this and now the broken part of the bolt is stuck. 1. I already ordered replacements 2. I talked to my local performance shop and they said they can probably get it out but no promises 3. If a shop somehow can’t get this out then wtf am I supposed to do...

Just saw this on kooks description on beefcake website saying can’t use these with boosted applications. I want to run a ess g3 later this year on the car so is this true? And is this the situation with all high flow cats or just kooks, because I don’t see anything about this on ARH headers...

Hey guys 2 things , shop gave me an idea since they knew I didn’t really wanna shift the engine mounts ended up fixing the banging with a heavy duty hose clamp put onto the ac line where my zip ties originally more. This is much more tight and also way more durable/adjustable. So no more banging...

Ah no not getting the new mounts sorry I meant we are gonna try loosening the stock mounts and shifting the engine a little to the drivers side and then tightening them. If this doesn’t work tho I will probably get new mounts along with my ultimate or kooks headers

1. called texas speed, they said no and that all of their headers are perfectly manufactured 100% the same fit and didn’t want to ship me out a new one or have me send them mine for repair. Guy was being quite an ass on the call lol. 2.so just contacted my local shop and sometime next week we...

Yea I guess your right, I will ask my shop to do that first and see how it goes, will update.

Ultimate headers looks great especially with a ceramic coating from then but I am scared of getting a bad set to be honest, I’m having it installed by a shop so if the fitment I’d screwed up and I need to send it back them than the shop will have to put my texas headers back on, then send out...

Fitment looks great. If I get a set from ultimate headers I’d probably get catted, so you’re saying it didn’t fit until u got the engine mounts? Also which engine mounts did u get cause I’m considering them anyways with how much the car jerks on shifting in drag mode.

I think the texas speed headers are slip fit design, I’m not the most mechanically inclined and new to this stuff so maybe search it up just in case I am wrong. I have the texas speed 18-23 catted connection headers to specifiy. And yea if you could show more pics of the ultimate headers I’d...

May consider ultimate headers then, I want to swap out just the headers(not the connections pipes) but the kooks aren’t the same connection as texas speed and I wouldn’t want to buy the full cat set from kooks as that is $3400 and I’m a little bit low on money atm
