Question Cheap Gasket Set

Anyone know of a site where i can get an upper and lower engine gaskey set fairly cheap for my 87 xj 4.0?
also need to know if anyone knows what a cheap set of tires would cost and where to get them....stock size tires nothing fancy

.

you should check out the XJ's in youtube.com that have those diff kinds of exhaust installed. it all depends on how loud you want. i have the dynomax cat back from jegs.com (which is cheap at the time i bought it - they were running a mail in rebate. in the end it ended up being $50 for the whole cat back exhaust). it's sounds just right for me. not too loud inside and out. it's a little step up to the stock muffler.

Spend the extra coin to get the rubber molded gaskets. Cork works pretty good but is rather unforgiving.

Don't cheap out on tires and gaskets.

It will come around and bite you real quick.

Take your date to the $1.00 movie house instead.
