Default Re: Exhaust Gasket leak and stud broke

Don't have a price because the work was done under warranty, but a couple years ago my 2004 had 2 broken ex man bolts...1 rh and 1 lh and they had to pull the head in order to get to one of the broken bolts. Of course this meant new gaskets too. It was in the shop for almost a week for this and a power steering pump. So 2500 may not be too far off for a stealership shop where the labor is probably over $100/hr. Broken man bolts seem to be a common problem on older H2's. Don't know what year you have, but with 110k it might be time to bite the bullet and fix it if you plan to keep the truck. If you buy another truck you might end up having the same problem somewhere down the line. Maybe yo can find a local mechanic who could do it cheaper than a dealer
