    Cracked Exhaust Manifold?

    Good evening everyone, I've recently noticed a drastic change in my Jeeps gas mileage from around 15mpg to now 9-10mpg. I'm pretty good at keeping up with the maintenance (no check engine lights), and I know my lift & 35" tires don't help but I've had those modifications on for the past 4 years...

    California 49 State Legal Catalytic Converter

    I have for sale a 49 state legal catalytic converter made by Eastern. It was on my Jeep when I bought it, but wouldn’t pass emissions in CA. It did pass emissions in TX fwiw. The cat itself is in good shape, but the piping downstream is rough. Make an offer!

    Novak block hugger headers for a Gen III swap?

    I was wondering if any of you have used the Novak block hugger headers for a TJ Gen lll swap? If so, have they been reliable, leak free and have you been generally happy with them after putting some miles and years on them? So that's the primary question but to expand a bit if you care to read...

    Exhaust Resonator Delete

    Has anyone cut out the resonator in their 4.0? Im thinking to leave the two cats, cut out the resonator and weld in a pipe. This paired with the banks monster exhaust i think could add a little more crackle into the sound of the exhaust. Please let me know if there is any problems with doing...

    Switching from Straight Pipe to Muffler exhaust system is messing up my transmission?

    I bought my 2006 Jeep LJ from a buddy not too long ago and he has it straight piped. After a couple of months of daily driving the droning got to me. Found a 40 series Flowmaster muffler on Facebook and bought it. Cut a piece out of the pipe, used some adapters and now it was bearable....... I...

    4.0 exhaust flange leak

    So I needed to drop my exhaust to get to my oil pan. I separated the exhaust at the flanges just above the Cats and upon re-installing it sounds horrible. What did I miss? Are they miss-aligned? Are there seals/doughnuts that I did not see? Any thoughts?

    Hi all, looking to replace some parts on my stock exhaust on my 04 rubicon. People on here seem to like the thrust muffler. My question is, will this particular muffler( part number 17651) slide right into the 2.25" tailpipe and clamp on or need some other modifications? Also plan on removing...

    Question on the factory exhaust system of an '04

    I plan on replacing the entire exhaust system on my '04 with the 4.0, but I'm rather confused as to its setup. I notice on my TJ that the exhaust manifold splits into 2 pipes that converge directly in front of the oil pan, and then head to the catalytic converter. However, with all the exhaust...

    Jeep 4.0L Winter Whistle

    When I first purchased my 2004 TJ earlier last Spring (end of March or so?), soon after having it - in the morning, it would whistle. After a few minutes, it would quiet down and go away - and I wouldn't hear it again, until the next morning. Researching it led me to believe it was the IAC...

    Rpm falling below idle at stops

    Hi, I have a 97 Wrangler 2.5 and recently when I stop or slow down suddenly the rpm will fall below idle. It drops to about 500 rpm. I have read that it could have something to do with the exhaust but I don't want to go tearing apart the engine to find nothing. Looking for a quick fix because...
