New Cat Needed

Why the comment about normal temps? Doesn't the ZJ have AC?

I miss my ZJ. :(
Um....because 114* isn't normal. :rotflmao:


:yup: it has working a/c.....but to cool the ZJ isn't as user friendly as cooling down the TJ....Plus I love driving the TJ, between the lift/tires and broken mirror.....people move out of my way now. :pirate: Figure if they come our way they are hitting the sliders or tires. :jump:

Ended up being an $1,159 repair. Needed a new pre-cat, so everything from the engine to the cat had to be replaced. Sucks big hairy balls, but it is what it is. :owned:

Yeah, I know. I don't have the paperwork on me, but there was over $300 in labor. I think the part was like $700-something. I didn't want to wait and order from Summit and possibly get the wrong one, etc. It was higher than I was expecting and about that I'm disappointed, but kind of wanted it done.

He also said I need a new oil pan and wanted to charge me $450 for that installed - says the book calls for 3 hours of labor on an oil pan replacement? :puzzled:

I'm sure that sounds lovely. A buddy's 5.9 Ram was exhausted that way and it sounded like a broken down piece of shit.

oh well. everyone gets raped
Not always. I brought the wife's toyota to a shop 2 weeks ago saying "MIL light on for bad cat, exhaust leaks everywhere, probably needs an entire new exhaust system minus the manifolds."

I was asking to be raped and exptected $1000-$2000 as the bill.

I walked out of there with a $155 bill.
