      Nice header for 1991 Jeep

      First off I have not yet had a chance to see how the header sounds and preforms as I am still in restro mode. But did install the header on the new engine that is not in the jeep yet. But wow thank goodness it wasn't in the jeep yet because there is one bolt that is a nightmare. Just install that bolt first and it will work out fine. Header looks amazing and the welds look very good and lined up with the head perfectly.

      Great sound and added HP

      Love this BBK header. Sound added with my Fliwmaster sounds throaty but not too loud and definitely tell the added HP. Only complaint is the middle lower bolt head hit the tubing and was a b**ch to get in and tight. Other than that piece of cake.

      First of all it looks amazing! Nice heavy construction. It bolted right up and sounds great! Most importantly it replaced the one I had with a huge crack in it.

      Header install

      Great fit! A little hard to get to one of the bolts on the bottom side of the header though due to design! I’m happy and would recommend!

      2011 Rubicon - Breatheable

      nice sound

      It took a bit longer than what is said time wise due I live where it rains alot and moisture is prevalent. I had cracks in both manifolds four broken bolts and two no bolt heads. I used a stud remover from napa easy piesy. one bolt stripped and I had to grind said bolt and it popped off slammed on the remover done. headers bolted right up left side no prob. left side a little fandangling and it was in poof. yes of course ran it with just the headers and man what diff. buttoned everything up and right after the Y pipe put a cherry bomb on and pipped out very throtty vey nice. also replaced ABS tire sensors both front and all 02 sensors.

      O2 kit

      If it is a kit it should contain all that is required not just one wire when you need 3 to do the job

      Great aftermarket exhaust

      Great exhaust over the OEM design. Engine was actually able to breathe. Sounds and feels great. Installation was pretty straight forward. Only issue real I had is there weren't enough O2 sensor extensions included, I had to buy two more. Your check engine light will be on because of the deletion of two cats (at least for an 08 model) and high flow design of the two cats on the y-pipe.

      Handles the salt

      Good fit and install for the most part. The headers get close enough to the transmission that it's nearly impossible to remove sensor 2 in bank 2. Passenger side

          Word On The Trail

          Love the fitment note that directs you to whether the part fits, and this is the best confirmation screen with pics of what you ordered, confirmation that its in stock, shipping address, etc. Super easy to use.
