Thankfully we don't have Harbor Freight up here We do have Princess Auto though
I rarely cheap out on things like this, and $20 for 4 is cheap enough any how. They look like they would lay down nice and even with the carpet so they wouldn't get caught on anything when not in use.

Installed a new Thrush muffler since the original amounted to a pile of rusted confetti.
New header, injectors, throttle body spacer arrived in the mail also. Ill have those on within the month. Debating on whether or not to replace the four O2 sensors since Ill have easy access with the intake and exhaust off. They dont trip any codes but Ive read they can still function albeit diminished without setting off a CEL. And seeing as my Jeep is pulling ~10mpgs in the city bone stock besides my new muffler, Im leaning towards a yes!
I recently bought this Jeep and I want to keep that 4.0 running forever!

This whole tie down conversation got me thinking and I did a little searching. Check out this option. Can be used as a surface or flush mount and I think it would serve nicely for a tie down in the cargo area of an XJ. Fairly cheap too at about $5 each. I will be stopping at the nearest trailer shop tomorrow to see what they have to offer.
Any of you guys run a glass pack with a turndown right of of it?
Thinking about running 2 short glass packs off the cat using a y pipe, and then running turn downs right off those. My current muffler doesn't have the bark I'm looking for, it's just too bassy for my taste. Current muffler is similar to a flowmaster 40

Got my new control arms bolted up and moved the new axle into place and got buttoned up. Just waiting for the last final parts to arrive to finish it up.

Yeah to work I'd have to think about a way to form the hole. Stamping them with a press like when a pickup bed is formed would be ideal. Could also be an issue with proximity to the frame. Than there's the carpet thickness issue. It was just an idea.
Something like that would work well. Easy to put in. Bolt down with the biggest fender washer I can find below that will fit. Easy to do... So long as the fuel tank isn't in the way.

I don't think the inline 6 will really ever sound "good" at least not like a V8 ZJ...

Got my relay box installed so all my switches finally work. Just in time to head to Las Cruces for the weekend!
