down pipe
 

ok guys my down pipe looks like someone beat it with a hammer, anyone make these peices or am i looking at a custom one needed to be made, thx guys

x2 mine has a bad spot smashed in it from what looks like the Front D/S.

Yeah Walker who makes the Dynomax exchaust does...I ordered mine through Advanced Auto...Part number is Walker 44626. Yours will be the same since well we both have 91 XJ's..:) You can also get them from Autozone and Napa I just chose Advanced since they are a couple blocks from the house.

i was thinking about maybe havea whole exhast made but if i can buy atlest the down pipe i'd be happy

The pipe will run about $55 bucks and cheaper then having one made..You can also order through summit racing.

does it look any better then wut i have lol?

well if yours looks anything like mine did before I replaced it then well yeah it was pretty bad.. I also upgraded the exhaust manifold to an APN header and that helped out as well..

That is on my list of items to fab up.
My wife wants to learn to weld, so I will order madrel bent pipes from jegs and weld a free flowing one up.
I will post pics if anyone wnats them.
the factroy really smashed the thing, it's a wonder that the jeep can breath at all.

If only I could weld...:)

Hey welding is easy, just go buy a nice wire feed, and collect as much scrape metal as you can , and just start practicing.

The wife wants to learn, so next project is hers.
One suggestion, Buy a great mask, you only have one set of eyes.

I had to weld a new adjustable trac bar brace to the axle, ugly as hell, but two years and holding. I use the gorrilla weld technic, ugly and strong as a gorilla.

On pipr turn down the heat and speed, and go nice and slow.
Your close enough, and same year, maybe I'll make two and send ya one. (need some practice)

Borla makes a complete replacement 304 SS exhaust. The shortly header comes with a mandrel bent down tube which does not have the u-joint dimple. The cat back system can be bought separately. Be aware the cat back may require modification if used with a lift.

Hope this helps,

you can get a non-crushed downpipe from rock auto for about 35 bucks. you wont see any gain from it whatsoever unless youre running more mods

Hmm I looked and when I ordered mine all they had was the Walker pipes for the down pipe..

im not really looking for gains, but i know that if the exhaust has better flow you get better MPG's, plus new is always better, right?:dunno:

thx, nick:head:

and they dont have a crush. im pretty sure mine is walker. it has crush bends in it though, not mandrel. so in effect its probably restricting the same amount.
