I've had my DPF/cat from my Ford 6.4 sitting in the garage for 4 years. I've heard you can get cash for the metals that are in them? Where and how much should I get for it?

So I have my complete exhaust system when I deleted my 6.7 f350. Is it actually worth something?

Nexgen will buy them. Call them and they will give you a quote. I suggest keeping it until you sell the truck though. There may come a time when you have to reinstall it.

The only reason I say to keep it around is someday johnny law might be told to ticket everyone that has changed out the dpf, or to sell a vehicle, it has to be all intact kinda thing. Chances are it won't happen any time soon but it could change and you don't want to buy a new one trust me.

Yeah. Got that but the reason it was taken out cuz it was screwed so I would not be able to reinstall it anyways. Is it still worth something plugged up?

They will still buy them. They want the precious inside lol. What year is your truck? Did the emission warranty run out? If anyone gets into that kind of situation where the dpf is screwed but they cover it under warranty, BUT you don't want the hassle of it anymore, Get the warranty work done then pull the dpf.

At this point then I would sell it then. If your truck was a little new I might keep it. I plan to do the same when I get to that stage. When warranty won't cover the parts and labor anymore then time to delete.
