Ive been banging away on a 2006 manifold with a hammer to try and get it to work. Talk about a pain in the A_ _ ! Finally got the rear Manifold in, but didnt want to fit, without hitting the front axle shaft. Took an old socket and bent the manifold about 1/2 inch inward where the shaft went, and now it works. Hope everything else works! I Need both manifolds and Y pipe. Fingers crossed!!!

What a pain in the ass! As an amateur who has never done this... It already seemed like a lot.. but gosh all of this. Thanks for preparing me.

Full disclosure - I'm a master mechanic and have been doing this stuff 20+ years. This repair is very difficult with high potential for additional parts to break along the way.

@@PaintedSpringsGarage thanks. Trying to stay confident because I can’t afford a shop to do it. From the looks of it, i’m going to need to but a punch and/or saw and/or extractor kit. So much to do. Thanks for sharing.

What brand of manifold didnyou end up with on the rear? Im going theough this on my daughter's 2008. I have a Dorman from Rock Auto and it does not line up with the y pipe and I'm having a hard time getting it returned.

You could modify the Y pipe, get it repaired at an exhaust shop, use a saw zaw / exhaust pieces / tiger patch exhaust repair tape heat gun

What was the part number that fit lots of different brands online.

It was a Walker brand part that fit properly.

What year is it? The 2008 is a gen 2 BUT it has the Gen 1 transmission (4spd vs 6spd) - could be the 2008 (gen 2) uses gen 1 manifolds?

@@PaintedSpringsGarage Modify your title to include 2008 and stuff isn't fitting - I'll bet someone has knowledge of this. I hate to say it but maybe I'm right. The fact that the 08 gen 2 has the gen 1 trans - maybe it has the "gen 1" engine too ?????
