I assume this was due to the dealer over-tightening it (probably using a small impact on them?)
MacGyver lolIn my college days, (early 70’s) two hose clamps and a Coke can would have been my fix.
My grandpa said his fix was two hose clamps, a chunk of asbestos blanket, and a Minute Maid orange juice concentrate can over the asbestos. They don’t make em like they used toIn my college days, (early 70’s) two hose clamps and a Coke can would have been my fix.
Sure, because it was more than likely the 1400 ft-lb BluePoint impact they used on those clamps.Is there really any doubt in your mind?

The Borla cat-back on my wife's RAM 1500 was installed by the dealer. Well, about two months ago I noticed the one pipe was sitting funny and I've been putting off climbing under it to see why.
Well, finally got around to it on the weekend and the clamp split in half

It was obviously leaking, but not audibly, which is interesting, but it's post-muffler so I guess that's why.
So, popped up to Canadian Tire and bought the only band-style clamp they have, which is like 3" wide. I'm going to reach out to Borla to see about warranty on it.
I assume this was due to the dealer over-tightening it (probably using a small impact on them?) but I'm still surprised.
