First off, I know there are some threads on headers here but they're all super old so I want to start a new one for current info as many times products change over time.
As far as I can see there are 3 options for headers on the market. Doug Thorley, Headman, and Patriot...
Doug Thorley: Does anyone have these with the Y-Pipe that BJ's Off-Road sells? I have heard this setup hangs down way below the trans crossmember...true? Any photos here would be GREATLY appreciated. I have a '90 GW so the later model Y-Pipe.
Headman: Any reliability issues with the flanges since they're thinner than the Thorleys?
Patriot: I have never heard of this brand and know nothing about them so if you have them...what do you think?
I am replacing mine because the entire exhaust system that's on there now is a hodge-podge leaky mix of really old high beat up stock stuff and poorly done modifications. My pocketbook wants me to lean toward some un-coated Headmans and some header wrap but if it's worth it to spend 3x more on the Thorley & Y-Pipe setup then that's okay too.
