(straight -6) 258. Engine is original.
no major changes except tune up stuff
Manual - 5 speed (4x4)
My exhaust manifold along with the front pipe is orginal on my CJ7 jeep.
With some strong odors, I am starting to go around the jeep to clean it up that can cause so much bad fumes. I would like to replace the whole exhaust system this spring. I know the front pipe needs replaced, I see some holes in the pipe.
How I can I tell the manifold needs replacing? I will be taking it to a local muffler shop, but wanted some knowledge before I head that way. It has a catalytic converter; Tailpipe comes out the back corner of the jeep, not straight or a 90 degree bend.
On a side note I just ordered the Charcoal canister to replace since that is orginal as well and just finish the basic air filter, breathers stuff.
Brands: how important? Borla, Flowmaster, omix, hearthrob exhaust systems. Just know it needs to last and be strong to take the heat of the engine. Any suggestions or thoughts I thank you!
