So in the process of repairing my transmission for the 3rd time i have now completely stripped every stud on the flange of the collector port on my exhaust manifolds so i can no longer put my exhaust pipe back on. i've cut the studs and planned on drilling out the flange but thats proving to be more work than its worth. so im gonna get new headers, however, I CANNOT FIND A RIGHT (PASSENGER SIDE) MANIFOLD TO SAVE MY LIFE. i dont need a performance one, the cheapest one out there is fine, but that damn header is like trying to find a golden ticket on google. anybody know where i could get one?

 

Assume a V6 engine from the "right side" description, so that leaves 2.8l, 2.9l, 3.0l, and 4.0l engines used in Rangers

What year and what engine model?


Since you will need to pull the manifold in either case just take it to a local exhaust shop and they can remove and then reinstall new studs, they do it all the time, do a "cash deal" and I bet it won't set you back too much
