Worst Connections .EVER! STAY AWAY!

Got this cool side pipe for my 2016 Diesel F350. Installation was pretty easy. Only 45 minutes. Immediately I was very concerned about how short the alum was. There was a piece of tubing attached to each rubber joint. The overlap is only about 1/2 inch, even less than a 3/4 inch wide clamp. I'm towing a 42 foot trailer and the first time one of the connections came loose it shut my engine down in safe mode and wouldn't get to 35 mph on the interstate. It also put a strain on my exhaust filter, again costing me $300 at the Ford dealership to do a serious "regeneration". The second time it happened a month later, again while towing my trailer. Another connection to the whole scenario reappeared. Only this time it also included a $784.00 tow, plus another Ford "Regeneration" AND a lost vacation. If I could, I would throw this pile of garbage out her window. Ford didn't cover any of the costs as it was a replacement part even though my truck was still under the original warranty. It's now 10 days since the return date and I'm stuck with this $200 doorstop that burns me every time I look at it. AVOID THIS. Look for the best system with the best connections. This system cost me over $1200, two lost rides and I reverted to the original steep side tube. I could only scream

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
