as long as the bills get paid that is all that matters right.
when i was out of a job it sucked. going from 16 a hour to i think it was like 9 or something on unemployment sucked and trying to pay the car payment and house payment and all other bills sucked now i have two jobs to make up for it.

I know some of you guys have been looking for a Chrysler 8.25. I found this ad on ksl for one for $150.

Darn you guys are really going to have a great run this week end

Always, Do you know a Exhaust shop that would be not too pricey (got a house too ) in Cache Valley ? After closer inspection, turns out..... I don;t even have a cat....

Also anybody has a quick trick to remove the clips on the axle shaft U-joints ? It looks like they are welded rusted ....
My can of PB Blaster and my 3lbs minisledge are my two best friends these days lol....

the clips on the inside of the u-joints you'll just have to beat out with a flat head & a hammer! Then if you don't know how to beat the u-joint out I'm sure you can search youtube & find a vid, cause its kinda hard to explain!

As for the cat you can buy it from autozone & replace it yourself! (Way cheaper)

Thanks, I will try that.... they are so rusted they might actually break easily
I have seen tutorials to remove the U-joints.... briefly a 28mm socket under and a smaller socket on top, beat the smaller one to pop the u-joint .... or something like that lol....

For the cat, I wish I could had that to my list of things to learn..... but cutting pipes and welding are not on my skill list yet.... so I will definitely have to let the pros do it ...unless Iget crazy

ya just get two people to help, one to holt the shaft and one to beat the hell out of it.
as far as a cat, well i think if you were to take it to some one take it to like alta muffler, now that brents custom muffler closed they are going to be your best bet. or like ryan said just buy one from like auto zone or checker and clamp it on or bring it out to me and i will weld it. or i guess i could pack everything in the jeep and come to you if you need me too.
