You can get a bolt on muffler at advance or autozone. I run their thrush muffler and it's good. You can get the headlight at a junkyard or try
www.daveysjeeps.com and he should have plenty.

All the other tune up stuff can be had at napa, advance, or autozone. If you wanna order online try www.rockauto.com or order from advance, napa, or autozone online too.
