Wondering if anybody has or have found headers for the older xjs. Going to redo my entire exhaust and have only found headers for 91 and up. Will those work on mine any help is great

As long as you remove the paint first. I've read it burns up. I'll be getting mine in the mail soon

Sweet that helps and aren't you lucky lol but thanks for help will be ordering when I get the money

this pretty much describes the header

There is an 02 sensor bung but they moved down on the pipe right before the cat, so you have to extend the o2 sensor wire. So in a sense there is some modifying in it, and my erg tube didn't line up with the header very well, other then that I have no complaints from my pacesetter

alsxj

Yeah my paint didnt last very long haha

the o2 sensor on renix is set to read all six cyls they moved it so it only reads three cyls now thats the only thing keeping me from buying one .

That's for the EGR tube. The O2 sensor bung is further down the pipe.

Yeah its not the best design I agree, I was just stating it is there just further down the pipe, to clearly the 02 isnt eliminated out of the system.

freegdr

i agree it will work my plans will be if i buy one get a bung welde on it where it will read all six as it was from the factory

finnal found a pic theres one way down on the header its in a different spot than the one in the video

This is a great video, wish I had watched this 4 years ago when I did mine. Another thing to warn ya if your stock, when I installed this header when my jeep was stock height, I had the front driveshaft joint. rubbing on the downpipe when I first installed it, although most of my suspension was shot and it riding a bit lower then stock but just a warning.

alsxj

Yeah mines just like the one on the video, where would you weld in the new burg to read all six? See I wish I knew what I know now back then, haha my manifold cracked and I saw it as the chance to upgrade, oh well, lessons learned.
