The aftermarket is more of a tri design.

If I had more time, I would just jig up my stock one, cut off the tubes and make my own using stock flanges.

Stock replacement is where im leaning

Hey Guys ...

Just gathering some info on replacement exhaust manifolds.

The aftermarket ranges from 150 to over 500 for headers.

I can get a Dorman stock replacement for cheap.

Cheap...

Thanks guys !!!

Just an update ....

XJ is doing great !!

Drives good, been to busy to take it to the "hills" ...

Just picked up another project .... :rolleyes:

So I've been driving my freshly lifted XJ for a while now.

I have about 2500 miles on it so far.

On certain roads, it seems to have a mind of its own, and on others its as straight as a arrow !...

Well, I was checking out the operation specs.

Locks when driveline torque is being applied.

Wondering how It works while driving and steering while "mall crawling" ?

How does the front Lokka perform on the streets, when in 2wd ?

Oh ya,

Heat is the enemy to trannys

We always use overkill coolers on all our builds.

I thinking the 456 gear sets is where I'm leaning

Thanks guys !!

Now, how about steering a guy into the cheapest direction ?

Ok .....

The poser is gonna need some.

Ideas of brands to stay away from ?

What you all use ?

Would love ARB, but ... $$$

On the 1st, I did see some very capable rigs pass me as I was headed out ....

One of them a Zuk, cut up on what looked like 38's

Oh ya .... The heat works very well !!

I didn't realize that the entrance to the Rubicon was only 1/2 mile down the road !

We went in about 1 mile, when we realized we were on E ...

:bang:

Also, the wife was scared ....

Homewood ...

Not much actually ....

We had this trip planned for a while , praying for some precipitation.

Roads are clear. You can see the water, last year the snow was high on markers

North lake .... "west shore"

Taking kids to Homewood for some lessons

One pic so far, pulled in back .... Front stairs to cabin were dangerously iced over ....

Well ....

We do take long freeway trips as well, though

Considering the fact that it is an auto, extra rolling resistance of the 33's, and the fact I do tow my 19.5' Big Block Jet Boat from...

Well ...

I have been driving the "poser" and must say I am happy with the ride.

However, I have to get this thing regeared ASAP, as it is guzzling the fuel !

Running a 33" Duratrac.
