Allow approximately 3 hours 54 minutes for this procedure. Always allow the engine to cool fully before beginning work on exhaust components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 1 — Safety and preparation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Disconnect the negative battery terminal. Allow the engine and exhaust system to cool completely to ambient temperature before touching any exhaust hardware. Work on a level surface with the vehicle secured.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 2 — Raise and support the vehicle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lift the front of the vehicle and place it on rated jack stands if underhood access to the lower manifold bolts requires it. Inspect the work area and confirm adequate clearance on the driver side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 3 — Remove heat shields:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove any heat shields covering the driver side exhaust manifold. These are typically retained by 8mm or 10mm bolts. Set them aside for reinstallation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 4 — Disconnect the oxygen sensor(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e Locate and unplug any upstream oxygen sensor connectors on the driver side. Use an O2 sensor socket to remove the sensor(s) from the manifold and set aside carefully to avoid damaging the wiring pigtail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 5 — Disconnect the exhaust downpipe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove the exhaust pipe-to-manifold nuts connecting the driver side downpipe or Y-pipe to the manifold. Standard torque on reassembly is \u003cstrong\u003e25 ft-lbs\u003c\/strong\u003e. Support the pipe so it does not stress the flex section when it comes free.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 6 — Remove the exhaust manifold bolts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Working from the outer bolts inward (outside toward center), remove all exhaust manifold mounting bolts. These are the bolts being replaced by the new hardware included with the 1041456 kit. Discard the old bolts, nuts, and spacers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 7 — Remove the old manifold and gasket:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carefully pull the old driver side manifold away from the cylinder head. Remove and discard the old gasket. Inspect the cylinder head mating surface for cracks, corrosion, or distortion. Clean the mating surface thoroughly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 8 — Inspect and prepare fasteners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inspect the included new bolts, nuts, spacers, and gasket from the 1041456 kit. Apply a thin, even coat of anti-seize compound to all new exhaust fastener threads before installation. Anti-seize is required on all exhaust hardware to prevent galling and to allow future serviceability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 9 — Install the new gasket and manifold:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place the new gasket from the kit against the cylinder head, aligning it with the port openings. Position the new BD Diesel 1041456 manifold against the gasket and hand-thread all new mounting bolts with spacers and nuts as applicable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 10 — Torque manifold bolts to spec:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tighten the exhaust manifold bolts in sequence, starting from the center bolts and working outward toward each end. Torque to \u003cstrong\u003e15-18 ft-lbs\u003c\/strong\u003e in multiple passes. Do not overtighten — the high-silicon ductile iron construction of the 1041456 is designed to seal correctly at the specified torque range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 11 — Reconnect the exhaust downpipe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reconnect the driver side downpipe or Y-pipe flange to the new 1041456 manifold using the included new nuts. Torque the exhaust pipe-to-manifold nuts to \u003cstrong\u003e25 ft-lbs\u003c\/strong\u003e. Apply anti-seize to these fasteners as well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 12 — Reinstall oxygen sensor(s):\u003c\/strong\u003e Reinstall the upstream oxygen sensor(s) into the new manifold. Torque O2 sensors to the manufacturer specification (typically 22-30 ft-lbs). Reconnect all sensor wiring connectors securely.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 13 — Reinstall heat shields and final checks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reinstall all heat shields in their original positions. Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperature. Inspect the entire driver side for exhaust leaks, paying special attention to the manifold-to-head gasket surface and the downpipe connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStep 14 — Retorque after first heat cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e After the first full heat cycle (drive cycle to full operating temperature and return to ambient), retorque the manifold bolts to confirm they remain within the 15-18 ft-lbs specification. This step is especially important on fresh exhaust installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat vehicles does the BD Diesel 1041456 fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1041456 fits 2014 through 2024 RAM 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 trucks equipped with the 6.4L HEMI GAS engine.

The 1041454 is a complete kit that includes both driver and passenger side manifolds. If you only need the driver side, the 1041456 is the correct part. If you need the passenger side separately, that is part number 1041464.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the 1041456 made from high-silicon ductile iron instead of standard cast iron?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-silicon ductile iron offers significantly better resistance to thermal fatigue cracking, warping, and oxidation compared to standard cast iron. The 6.4L HEMI runs at high exhaust temperatures, and the ductile iron alloy used in the 1041456 is the same OEM-grade specification used in original factory manifolds for this reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat torque spec should I use for the BD Diesel 1041456 manifold bolts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTorque the exhaust manifold mounting bolts to 15-18 ft-lbs, working from the center bolts outward in sequence. The exhaust pipe-to-manifold connection nuts should be torqued to 25 ft-lbs. Apply anti-seize compound to all exhaust fasteners before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 1041456 come with a gasket and hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
