I got it from discountramps on ebay, it seems well worth the 120 I paid for it.

Got my axles out and ready to go to the axle shop tomorrow morning.

When you put the axles back in, you probably need to find a buddy with a DRB scan tool or head to the dealer and have the ABS pump bled. Just a heads up when your ABS light turns on, you know why

Looks good man.

Do you like that header?

I have the same 2 pre cats, so options are limited. How much did you pay?

I will try to get a sound clip this weekend. Where should I host it? never posted a sound/video clip before. working on my rear main seal now and axles are getting dropped off tomorrow so I plan on having it all back together by sunday. I still do not have my rims and tires though.

I will have to say that the exhaust sounds much better than expected. Growing up around chevy small and big blocks I am very proud of the 4.0s sound now.

Hey,

I like what your doing and wanted to know a few thinsg about your rig if you don't mind.

for the Viper 5101 keyless entry/remote start with the XK531 transponder how long did it take for you to install?

how are the Nokya stage 2 Arctic White 6000K bulbs in the headlights and the fog?
do they have more output over the stock ones or just give the color to the lights?

how are the Duralast Gold ceramic pads and rotors working out for you?

Thanks

Am I wrong about this or did I see your putting XJ sliders on your WJ? Ive got a set of XJ sliders from my old XJ and the wheelbase on the WJ is longer by about 6 inches. I was going to figure out how to put the XJ sliders on my WJ but they are about 3 or 4 inches too short on both sides.
