Welcome to the description, where you will always find more about the video and the things in it.
I installed a Flowmaster Super 40 Delta Flow: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
And a new tailpipe from Walker Exhaust: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
The Cherokee uses 2.25” exhaust pipe. I picked up an extension piece and clamps from a local parts store.
THE TOOLS: -Sawzall or hand saw
-Various Sockets
-9/16” Ratchet Wrench for clamps (XJ uses 2.25” exhaust pipe)
-Muffler, Tailpipe, Extension piece & 4 clamps
-Front Tailpipe Hanger: www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo....
-Rear Tailpipe Hanger (99-01): www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo....
-Probably some sandpaper -Probably also some exhaust paste for sealing up leaks -Exhaust hanger removal tool you'll only ever use this one time: www.amazon.com/Exhaust-Remova...
EXHAUSTS RANKED FROM WORST TO BEST
(In my personal experience and opinion)
-Stock (boring)
-Banks cat-back kit
-Flowmaster super 40 Delta flow (this video)
-Straight Piped with no catalysts or muffler
-Flowmaster Super 44
-With catalysts but no muffler (side exit) (epic)
I have no regerts with this new muffler, but the side exit thing was really starting to grow on me. Check out the secret video: • Side Universe Exhaust ...

„It’s your predetermined destiny to start the engine without a muffler on it” nailed it

Ayy new video! haha could not be better timed lol, recently got a nice squeaking noise whenever the exhaust got hot, had a hanger crack. Took me a two weeks to find the darn thing, was the one right above the cross member but at some point i gotta replace everything as each one is gonnna start going soon knowing my luck. You are making quite the library of videos, once i get a garage swear you will be playing in the background of a lot of projects at this point, keep up the good work man, keep trucking!

good video, bro - I have the FM Super 44 installed which sounds a bit different on my 1998 XJ with a Magnaflow high flow cat - more raw, throaty, raucous - lovin it !

@JeanPernicia 10 ай бұрын

Nice video! I think that the 2 piece exhaust manifold used on '00 and '01 model years gives the 4.0 engine a distinctive sound over the previous one piece manifold.

I just replaced my muffler and reused the tailpipe. Some new clamps and a little elbow grease I was there for 60ish bucks.

Excellent! I suppose I could have reused my Tailpipe, but it was original, so I figured why not make it new and shiny

@@WAEMIDIV absolutely. I should have replaced rather than reuse but it was only a little crusty at the end so I saved the money. I had to replace my water pump at the same time so it was a twofer job…

I do try. But this video was kinda lame compared to the last one... so I figured I'd wait a bit before release so people would have lower expectations lol

Did you do a wiring harness for the new rear hitch?

@WAEMIDIV 5 ай бұрын

Yes, but that happened a long time ago. I routed it under the cargo area trim and it comes out next to the latch for the liftgate, so it stays inside when not in use, and when I do need it, I just route it outside through the weatherstripping with the liftgate closed over it

2:14 how do you get this bracket off? I’ve tried so hard and it won’t come off. the previous owner of my jeep took off that rubber hanging piece and welded the hanger straight to the bracket. I’m looking to replace the muffler though and need to drop the tailpipe in order to do that. thanks!

@WAEMIDIV 6 ай бұрын

sounds like there's been some custom work that will require custom solutions. The bracket is held to the frame by 2 bolts, I broke one of mine.

Not for me, I've consistently averaged 19 in the city and 20 on the highway, and that's still the same after 10 fillups with this Muffler vs. the stock one.
