Here it is after I put the High flow cat and the magnaflow muffler at 2.5 inches, to tell you the truth I am disappointed, I wanted it louder and I can barely hear it in the cab.....

Nice mj man, I went with the pacesetter header as well, its been pretty good too me but if you want to hear the exhaust ditch the magnaflow and go with a super 44 flowmaster. I have one on mine and I love it.

So Next I noticed the steering wheel felt like it was about to fall off, shaking around and very loose, did some research and noticed it is a common problem with these year model jeeps. I had to tear everything apart and tighten up four screws that had backed out around the ball joint? of the tilt wheel assembly. This took some time and a few time of putting it back together and taking it back apart to get right. Finally got it all back together and everything works great but now a month or so after the horn is intermittent and I have the key get suck in the on position twice randomly. Haven't had time to check it out yet though.
This little guy just fell out when I was pulling everything apart. I looked it up to be the key buzzer... Well since it never worked to begin with I "forgot" to put it back in after I almost blew my brains out messing with it for a hour....
These are all the pictures I have, I forgot to take some of the actual Business area where the problem was. But all I can say is I don't want to have to do this again.....
