Talking headers

Put Rugged Ridge shorty headers on today, sprayed throttle body with seafoam, & replaced PCV valve I broke think that's correct its a plastic 90/elbow on top of valve cover towards the back. I got new one from dealer $6 & change. Also cleaned valve covers off. Next I need to replace down pipe with O2 sesnor in it. I dented it pretty bad wheelin over dunes on the beach dent size is big enough to fit a 1/4 of a tennis ball in it front driveshaft hit, need new bumpstops too but waitin for lift.

I relocated the vacuum pod from under the bumper to under my air filter. Also I changed the rear seal on my transfer case and aft u-joint on the rear shaft.

I have a DEATH WOBBLE issue to clear up then I am ready to hit the trails.

Cool I decided to keep the old girl!

I decided to keep the old girl so I fixed the passenger side seatbelt reciever so when my wife (old girl) sits shotgun she doesn't go threw the window if somethin were to happen. Old 1 just released when it wanted to. Picked up reciever at Condons junkyard for $35 bit pricey but I had my daughter with me had to go somewhere they pull for you she's only 3 & need to be 16 to enter yard.
