    recently taped up my muffler with some high-temp wrap and also trying to figure out what to do with my soundsystem. just wrapped my head around the whole amplifier deal.

    Ditch the muffler and get a decent high flow muffler. Sounds and performs better anyways. I went with a stainless steel 2 into 1 totalflow muffler from amazon for 32 bucks and have been very happy

    Does anyone know how to determine whether your valve covers are aluminum or plastic?  I don't understand why this wouldn't be something known dependent on engine and model year.  I mention this because this determines whether you can replace the spark plug o-rings or not, which means needing new valve covers if not.

    Take a picture. You should be able to tell by looking at them. The aluminum ones were on 01 and later q’s for sure

    You'd be experiencing no change in exhaust note because it sounds to me like your resonator fell off, that doesn't make much of an impact on exhaust note. Mine fell off too due to rust on my Infiniti, and I chopped it off my 4Runner so I didn't smash it on rocks. If it broke off at the main muffler you may have a hard time repairing it if at all possible, but if the pipe just broke somewhere in the middle you could probably cobble something together to route it out behind the mudflap or something.

    Yep. After cutting off my rear resonator I got almost no increase in noise volume, just a slightly throatier sound

    I bought a smittybuilt tj bumper and some metal for brackets! Also for radiator support repair of course. So that means I'll also be relocating all the plastic bits including the wager fluid and coolant resivoirs and a air intake will potentially get sealed up. Anyone have any suggestions on relocations and mounting? It will later get a winch plate put on it.

     

    Smittybuilts winch plates and even winches are  cheaper than harbour frieght on Amazon.

     

    This has been an Amazon build huh? A Little bit of speedway motors . com but mainly amazon has been my supplier lol

    Somebody on this forum made custom overflow and wiper reservoirs from 3 inch pvc pipe. I’ll try to find it

  5. First off...is it 4x4? Second....for lift if you’re not gonna off road it maybe just go with new springs and some lift spacers. 2 inches of lift will be great. Throw some nice 31s on there on your wheels of choice. If it’s 4x4 get locking hubs to increase cv axle life and aid in better fuel mileage. Probably replace shocks struts and suspension bushings as well for ride quality. For power...not a lot of options. Get a good 2.5 inch exhaust on there and maybe a snorkel. Replace iacv gasket, flush and replace all fluids. New fuel, and air filter. Definitely do timing belt and water pump at this point. Tranny filter too if money is no problem. Light bars are great too and a roof basket looks pretty cool if you’re after that

    Sweet man, do the Range Rover rear coils give the same lift over stock? I’m assuming so emoji23.png thanks!!!

    Yes they do. 2-2.5 inches of lift over stock with much improved spring rate. Plus....they cost about 80 bucks shipping include vs 4x4 parts springs for 180 plus shipping which can be very steep!
