Let me know how it sounds. I am looking for a mild, affordable muffler to replace my blown apart factory one.

Will do. I had a similar one on the 95. Well actually it's still on it and it sounded great. Not obnoxious but not too quiet. Nice deep throaty sound. I'll take a video when I get it on the truck.

Nice! I am more than excited about owning this truck. I never thought I would finally be lucky enough to get one. I've always wanted this color and year.

Here she is in her native parking spot at work. Speaking of "she" i still haven't given a name yet. Any ideas? I hope more ppl will join in the thread. Noone has guessed the price correctly yet! We know it's less than $2600!

I might take the jeep decal off the windshield and pop it on the side but I'm not sure.

Definitely dude! I'm going to be running a 4.5 inch lift. I have it already but I'm going to do some things before I toss it on. I go to local places around here. Back in the woods. Nowhere really famous. I'd love to go to north Jersey.

So here is the plan for tomorrow. I took a vacation day at work. ( it pays to be union!) and I am going to go over my Co workers house who has a lift in his driveway to get some serious work done.

* install new muffler
* awe in awesomeness of throaty l6 sounds
*drain oil and replace oil filter adapter o rings.
*change oil
*flush diffs and paint covers
*fix windows. (finally)
*Tint windows ( if I have time)
*Take a million pictures!!


But now time for a beer and some tacos. XJ convoy en-route.
