i put on my new thrush "welded" muffler...

i hate it...it sounds like a soft, humble purr that sings like an import at higher RPM's

im not going for a fullsize V8 sound...but i would like my jeep to have a decent tone to it...im going to call JEGS tomarow or monday and see if i can return it, and pay the difference for a flowmaster 40...

i'm taking off my muffler and putting a different one on. mine was hit by a rock so it's hella dented. maybe i'll take one off of a big SUV to have that mean sound to it with a small exhaust tip.

Put a new adjustable tie rod end on my track bar. Had a not so enjoyable drive back from the folks' place today. The Jeep was all over the road in pouring rain. Well, at least the snow and ice was gone.

Also wired up the new Sony Xplode deck and front 6.5" speakers. I will figure out where the 6x9s are going to go, tomorrow.

How you like that Xplod?

My woman loves hers, and now that she realizes why I got a unit with a remote...she likes it even more.
