Model-year comparison
Market analysis
Asking prices for a used Ram 2500 exhaust manifold are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 92% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $125.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 6.7L, lists at a $75 median, while 6.4L, RH commands $125, a 67% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $75, while 2021 tops the table at $150. Parts from 2009–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2018 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 12 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Ram 2500 sits 76% above the GMC Sierra 1500 ($71), 67% above the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($75), and level with the Ram 3500 ($125) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
