Do they make headers for 02 or older Libby's, if so where do I find them? |

And no they do not make headers for the '02 KJ's.JBA makes headers for the KJ but will only fit the bolt-on style flange found on the '04+ KJ's.You can put them on a '02 but some modifications will be needed to adapt them to the rest of the exhaust system. |

The bolt on flange would have to be cut off and then have your muffler shop weld up some adaptor pieces to the rest of the exhaust. KY Liberty should have more information... search in the 4x2 section for some past history. |

Or drop in a MOPAR crate Hemi and get a set of headers.

I've had a set of them sitting in a box for a couple years. JBA never managed to make any for the early KJ's after I pointed out to them that they were different. Just kept hearing 2 more months over and over. They will be a custom install, so no one around here will go near them until there is 80k miles or 8 years on it. Mine is at 76k and 7.5 years right now so it won't be long until the headers and high flow cats will be going on. I'm thinking about going with some 206 cams at the same time, but may wait on them. |

They become aware of issues and never update their info, even if it is critical info. My wife is hardly a computer guru, but she maintains an ecommerce site with multiple pages, online ordering, and online scheduling. To change a few words is such a simple task that it would take literally 3 minutes to update this info. ( hijack off) |

Even JBA's sight still lists that they fit the '03. They know for a fact that they do not. I've discussed it over and over with them during the year they kept telling me 2 more months. I finally decided to just have them custom installed and asked for mine back to find out they sold them to someone else. They also said they didn't know when they would ever do another manufacturing run on them, so they sent me another set, for a Dodge Nitro 3.7 that has an EGR which is going to be even more custom. Then I found out no one would do a custom install on them until my cats were out of warranty since they wouldn't bolt to them. I've got about 4k miles or half a year until the cats are out of warranty and I can finally get them installed. |
