LS Jeep Comanche gets an exhaust system (part 1)

I sure hope this quiets things down at least a little bit.
The welding is horrible, the flow dynamics probably suck, and the tubes are probably too close to the floor but darn it I'm going to make this work one way or another. I'm still waiting on some parts to finish this system to come in the mail but in the weeks to come, I'll be able to start this Jeep and see If any of this makes a difference. Open headers are way too loud to be running the engine and setting up vacuum lines.

Right? I was just thinking it's kinda like a big Revell model kit.

I like your exhaust looks close to mine

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

Thank you!

Hmmm. I'm leaning towards option 1L. Is there enough room to tip the derale cooler on its side so the lines exit on the side instead of the bottom, and move it drive or passenger to make clearance for the winch? I'm 100% with you on keeping the winch build, it's wonderful.

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

I'll give it another try. I started at it and held it up there till my arms and eyes hurt. I'll take another look with more sleep

But I like it!
Seriously, a weird thing at least isn't the same thing everyone else does. You're gonna run into problems, but that's because you're breaking new ground!

Rules are for suckers and people with carpet 😆

I think if this works it will only be because the engine is staying stock. I could nerd out and talk about length of travel, sharp angles and creating an orifice between the collector and resonator. Gotta work with what I can tho because I'd probably run into the upper link if I used the bigger y-pipe. If I end up having issues with this I'll have a pro build me something.

@BlackAndBlueGarage that's my thought on the mopar 360 I'm building, we're gonna be 2.5" all the way back to true duals, it's not a thousand horsepower, it'll be fine. Am I leaving some performance on the table? Yes. Will it still move snow? Also yes. Good enough!

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

@@wiresmith2398 I dig it

[@tjs_welding_and_fabrication]

Pressure test your exhaust and you will find leaks. Fix them now before the fluttering noise drives you crazy.

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

Dangit! Too late now 🙄. I'll just have to deal with it for now.

[@wiresmith2398]

Latest video private why?

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

I screwed up 🙄 is it working now?

[@wiresmith2398]

​@@BlackAndBlueGaragenope, won't let me comment

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

That's super weird. I tried unlisting it and then making it public again. Clearly I don't know what I'm doing lol​@@wiresmith2398

[@BlackAndBlueGarage]

@@wiresmith2398 I think I fixed it 🤞🏻

[@ProjectXJ]

I need to fix my exhaust. Its currently hanging with some wire to keep it away from my driveshaft. Which may or may not work all the time.
