Slow exhaust supplies?

Anyone else having a hard time getting an exhaust in the last couple months? I ordered LTs and an X Pipe a month ago and it’s still not shipped. I called the vendor and they’re citing supply chain backups. I doubted it since I haven’t had an issue getting anything else for the build this winter but if I get another brand, it’s still showing expected ship date 6/1/21.

just wondering if I’m not the only one. It’s the last piece I need and I’m getting impatient.

It seems that the supply chain is still dragging behind and material costs and shipping are on the rise as well.
I got an email from Kooks recently stating that all their products will be seeing a price increase due to material costs, and I’ve been shopping for brakes and they seem to be on the increase as well with a waiting time to get them.

Vendors are correct. Supply chain issues will be a continuing problem for a long time, world-wide, due to covid.

I was told 2 to 3 weeks for American Racing headers and x pipe. I'm a little over a week since ordering I'll let you know in a couple weeks

Sorry to hear about your issues. Supply chain issues are real. What vendor did you order from? Some are more reputable than others.

That ship getting stuck sideways in the Panama Canal likely didn't help matters. Basically anything considered non-essential is being held in port waiting to be unloaded or not getting shipped at all. We have been running short on a material that comes from Japan because it's considered non-essential.
