Got the new header installed last night, went ok but had to massage the intake just a hair to get everything in. Broke the plastic line from the intake to the rear port on the valve cover. Found out my drivers side motor mount has no rubber in the upper portion of it and has been the cause of a little bushing noise taking off from a stop.


The new header makes the jeep feel like its on 33s again, power-wise. Got bumpstops installed as well so once I get new motor mounts I can through in the front lokka, change my front u-joints and be good to go.

TC clocking jig showed up so thats a plus. Co-worker got canned so it looks like I will be working monday night thru friday night and will have time for Saturday night wheelin.

Thanks for the recommendation, ordered the brown dog rubber, will be here on saturday.

I gotta quit being lazy get some leaks taken care of and some lower control arm skids made up too. So much easier to just go wheelin'.



Hows that arm doing 91WhiteXJ?

Only some people on jeep forum. They are good if you don't wheel too hard, they are not very well protected from damage.
