Freeze off, lift, unbolt and repeat. Guess it didn't go as smooth.

 

funny you say that. i watched a guy do them with his XJ in like 10 minutes

 

About to get a new cat and glass pack installed. Can't wait to annoy the **** out of people.

 

Good, we'll do mine when you come for your drinks.

 

It gets old after a while. The whole time I was home, I was staying out with people til around 2-3am. Every time I left someone's house, I rolled the truck into the road before I started it cause I felt like a douche for being so loud.

 

The passenger side has zero room on the YJ. It's wedged between the alternator, oil filter, coil etc. It was 1.5" mount lift as well which made it even more interesting. Also the brackets is 6 casting holes that are unused for the stock setup. That means they've been filling up with crap since 1995. Had to run a tap through all those holes before we even started. Good times

 

Haha I don't really do anything at night so hopefully it won't get old.

 

I watched/helped Damien do one on his white Jeep a month ago. He was done in 15 minutes.

 

Just the mount or mount and brackets?

 

never said i knew how to...lol. but i'm game

 

Good I might want to do mines too

You did say YJ, right? No reason to MML an XJ unless you have crazy custom work.

I finally got my MJ unloaded from the drive back from Cleveland. Still have the bike in the bed until I can get ahold of my cycle guy.

 

Yes, the MJ/XJ should be easier because your not changing the engine position. He's on crazy lift and YJ's and real short driveshafts so we had to lift the motor to keep the shaft from binding up. Just make sure you do one side at a time. If you remove both sides the drive train will shift and getting them back in will be a PITA.

 

Bored Throttle Body



Cowl Intake

All went pretty smooth. A little noisier in the cabin, but not that my XJ is quiet (ZJ Fan, Dynomax Exhaust, Mud Terrains).

I do have a pretty annoying whistle at partial throttle. I don't know if it is the intake, or TB alignment. I might mess with it tonight.
