Well in the last week I have installed :
My header from Hawk,
My Bumper from Shrock &
My skidplate from Sean
I love putting new stuff on the tracker
-
cool toys!
:)
tell me about them headers
they expensive?
(easy plug in for the O2?)
Ive read a lot of posts about the hawk headers
how is the response on the throttle now?
-
Looks great!! I'd definitely like to hear your experience with the new header, as I want to add one eventually myself. What exhaust are you running?
-
Well before the I got the header i already had 2.5 inch exhaust, no cat and a flowmaster so the header was the finishing touch. Expensive?? well I paid 289.00 for it before shipping, but I wanted it right then and Hawk was the only one who had any in stock (i had been on Calmimi's waiting list for 6 months) The O2 sensor is an easy relocate, I just had to lengthen the wires about a foot. The only complaint that I have is that the collector bolts keep loosening Not enough to make the exhaust leak but enough to make it rattle like crazy I will retighten them (which is only about 3/4 of a turn) and it will start rattling about 20 miles later. Any body got any ideas on what to do about this??

you should have taken installation pictures
that would have ruled!

If you look under a lot of newer vehicles they use a shouldered bolt that uses a spring to hold the tension on the collector flanges. I'm sure that a quick trip to a parts house would yield something that could work for you. This might help keep you from having to retighten the bolts every 20 miles.
Just a thought.

Very nice! I want to get the header this winter, along with rebuilding the engine. I plan on fabbing my own bumper which will be very similar to what you've got.
Sounds like you need some gears now. ;)

Would this rule? ;) From the "Gear Guide" Section:
