Hahaha I’m all about it! I’m thinking the stimmy check from our fearless leader might stimulate the suspension on the LJ
2006 LJR “Mongo”
- Thread starter Pullski
- Start date
So I have some more updates. It looks like the LCA mounts are welded AND bolted to the frame, and both drive shafts have CVs. It also looks like the front drive shaft may have previously smacked the header where it joins with the single exhaust...kinda looks half baked.
There’s one for sale in the classifieds either this site or wrangler forum. Go grab it!
I have most of the tools for your TJ if you need help and love wrenching. I’m in RB.
You’re welcome! Told you we’d spend your money quickly hahaha
Mine will be done today and tires this afternoon. I can’t wait to see it done
Took Mongo to get smogged today (HOORAAAY CALIFORNIA IDIOTS) and the guys looked at the PO’s “custom” exhaust work and failed it. Of course the PO monkey just HAD to cut the one piece pre-cat pipe just before the third cat, and did an amazingly bad job welding the pipes back together. Any ideas as to where I can find a good replacement piece to repair this so I can pass smog and register it? It’s the piece with 2 catalysts immediately following the headers, and the third is downstream before the muffler.

Best/cheapest I could find.

Thanks for the help, but it’s not CARB certified. Out here in CA they can’t just accept the EPA stuff because “Orange Man Bad” and they have to make things more difficult/expensive to replace
Found this on the other wrangler forum...https://www.wranglerforum.com/threads/savvy-currie-rockjock-control-arm-set-for-tj-now-1050.2396827/#post-34800464
Any thoughts? It looks pretty beat and the fact that parts are missing is kind of concerning.

Over price, by a lot. I wouldn't pay more than $700 for that. New arms are $1200 before discount.
I found a guy selling an OEM cat from an 05 LJ that had frame damage! Bought it for $300 bucks on Friday and took the old garbage out when I got home. Put the new cats on yesterday morning and have been running the drive cycle on an off. It’s just straight cats with no muffler now and it’s LOUD and sounds meaner than I thought. I just wish I could hear myself think because I dig the sound. I also took the time to put in a Kenwood Excelon KMH-X704 head unit so I can finally have hands free calling and Bluetooth! Also, don’t mind my southern engineered exhaust hanger...the monkeys before me cut the mount off of the trans mount so I had to improv.
