There was a recall on exhaust manifolds for '96-97 Discos...

DO NOT JB WELD IT! Any way, jb weld is a fix in an emargancy I can see, but you need to have a shop try to weld it up, they will tell you it may not hold but it will be better than JB weld. if you JB weld it, theres a good chance if it don't work you won't be able to have it welded. Also check the recall out it will prolly cover you.

Can I take advantage of that recall still? I have acrack developing:)
