Market analysis
Why does the Ram 3500 intake manifold cost more?
A used Ram 3500 intake manifold carries a median asking price of $235, which is 61% higher than the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross at $146. Supply also plays a role: Ram 3500 has 2,097 priced listings versus 246 for Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Ram 3500 average ($394) runs 68% above its median ($235), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 11 model years for the Ram 3500 (2015–2025) but only 7 for the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (2018–2025), so the Ram 3500 data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Ram 3500 intake manifold is interchangeable across 20 model years versus just 6 for the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade B (good) condition, the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is 78% cheaper ($101 vs $461) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used intake manifold
- Inspect composite or metal manifolds for hairline heat cracks, blown runner gaskets, or oil soaking inside the plenum from bad PCV systems.
- Verify throttle body flange bolt pattern, MAP sensor mounting port, and vacuum port locations across model years and engine generations.
- Check variable intake runner flaps (IMTV or DISA valves) and actuator vacuum bladders or electric motors for proper movement without binding.
- Examine head mounting flanges for warping or deep gouges that prevent a vacuum-tight seal against the intake gaskets.
