Heartthrob Mandrel Bent Exhaust Pipes

Perfect replacement for the pipes I needed, original pipes rusted at the clamps. Customer service was good helped allot with what I needed to know so I got the right pipes that I was looking for.

There are few choices for 3" Mopar A-body tailpipes. The Heartthrob pipes are well-designed because they have a joint at the top of the over-axle area. Makes them much easier to install especially if you're working on jack stands and don't have a lift. That joint also made it possible (with a minor rework) to use them with relocated springs, into the longitudinals (3" inward). Removing a small wedge (3/8" at widest point) from the front pipe and re-welding the gap changed the angle of the rear pipe so that it clears the relocated leaf springs. Note: this will not fit with the stock gas tank under the floor, though. Anyway it beats spending hours with a pile of mandrel bends trying to get the right angle up and over the axle!

I was trying to do a custom dual exhaust on my Ranger, but didn't want to buy a kit. These pipes fit the bill perfect. The only issue I ran into is that the forward ends are expanded to 2 1/4" ID (they are made to fit over the Y pipe in Heart Throb's Deep Tone Dual kit). I was able to correct this with some adapter pieces. Anyway the spacing works out good for a single in/dual out muffler, and the pipes are almost long enough to reach the bumper despite being intended to be used with tips. I cut mine off near the leaf springs, welded a 45 on each side and ran tips out the sides at the back of the bed. Probably worth noting is that my truck has a hitch receiver and the pipes were running directly into the receiver when installed as they were supposed to be. May not be the case for all, the bar on my receiver is as wide as the frame rails.

Great set of pipes, fit well. I hooked them to a Cherry Bomb muffler and used the Heartthrob black resonators to build a great sound.

Item was delivered quickly and with the correct parts. I had ordered these parts 3 times before from different vendors and never received the right part. These parts from Heartthrob were exactly what I needed. Thanks much!

Everything came in fairly fast. Though I thought I got the right inlet/outlet sizes, they all came the same size so I had to weld the whole thing (which was my mistake). Checkout was a breeze, definitely recommend ordering from this site.

I was very pleased with my order of the Duel Exhaust pipe I ordered. I did have it installed at a shop, but could have done it Myself, everything fit as promised.(I also had ordered MagnaFlow Direct Fit Catalytic Converters, Cherry Bomb 2 1/2" single inlet- duel outlet,) So everything worked out Excellent..

The geometry did not fit well near the trunk pan. They are hard up against the trunk pan and vibrate. Also, they where too long at the exit. They went so far back they hit the rear shackle. So, no not happy with them.

I am very happy with my part but it took a very long time to process it.
