My guess would be they will give you a replacement rod for a broken rod... you would eat the cost of a new block and build on your own...
Just a GUESS, I have never heard of Apex rods or a lifetime warranty on ANY rods!!!

I called Hamilton and Wagler, both say they are looking into developing a cheaper rod for the Cummins platform but havent taken any real action to pursue it... So, whos got the good deals on billet rods?

Didn’t apex just take over making the same rods R&R used to? Pretty sure I read that here.

But honestly, $1800-2200 for carillos, less than $1000 for worked 12v Rods, or $1200 for the new kid on the block?
May be a tough sell.
Seems like another head stud dilemma (this is coming from someone who bought studs from extreme. Now I’m scared ****less I’ll end up having to buy arp anyways).

The R&R rods do not look like the apex rods

R&R was bought by Wagler... So there is no more R&R unless they are used. Wagler bought all the tooling and existing stock.
