Cool I will look at the prices there. Bent it in the Pine Barrens, Jeep was not running so I took the truck. Any time at the cave for a tack bar and ball joint replacement?

Anyone know a good cheap source for 4inch exhaust pipe? I decided not to piecemail the exhaust together and am just going to buy new when i have the cash. Also is it ok to do one straight section from the DP to the 90* at the stack? its a long way on the CC.

After my Jeep lost the ujoints on the rear drive shaft I took the Dodge to the Pine Barrens last weekend.

One dent from a tight corner and bent track bar later... I am still pleased with how it did. I extracted two international scout II's that had gotten in too deep and no one else could get and also 2 Jeeps.

Here are some videos.

This is the one that bent the track bar.

Wow reg cab shortbed probably would have made it with no dent! Sorry for the carnage, but looks like you had some fun there.

Hey iker depending upon how far you want to drive, right over the state line on Rt 1 is Cumberland Truck Parts, they will everything and anything you need for your exhaust.

truth- but when you have someone willing to give you just shy of your pay off amount of your loan for the truck. kind of hard to turn you nose up at it. sucks, but sooner or later i would have gotten rid of it.

Anyone have a ball Joint press or tool for removing and replacing a upper ball joint on a 99? I am going to try and replace it and the track bar on Sat Morning.
Thanks
