Is there a local shop that does exhaust work/repair?
« on: December 09, 2011, 02:50:15 PM »
So who would you guy recommend to do exhaust repairs?  

I had crushed the exhaust pipe between the header and the Cat, when I was out with JRAMA in June.  Oh, by the way I was hung up on the cross member not the bumper, in that waterhole...  We were looking in the wrong spot for the obstacle stopping us.

I really don't want to spend the $1500 (dealer quote) to replace the whole upper exhaust.  All that really needs to be done is to cut and weld a new 8 inch section.

i have used Al at Calgary Muffler for 10 years now. He has done simple to modified exhaust for me. He is fairly priced, no appointments (just show up) and quality work.
Located at 58th and Macleod.

Thanks,  I was wondering if they would charge and arm and a leg for the repair.  if it is reasonable, I will do that.

that's where I usually go, just only paid attention to location not name.

These guys are great. Al is great to deal with and it's always drive up service.

Al at Calgary Muffler

Yep.

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...
