Any one have Pics of a Air-Bake cookie sheet used as a Heat shield? wanna get this done before the weekend. needed some Ideas on how to attach it to the body.
I made a heat shield out of a regular cookie sheet on my old xj. After being painted black, it looked like a fipk grade intake. To do it though, I had to cut the sheet into a custom piece with a few bends in it. When you cut an air-bake sheet, the two pieces are not going to stay together. The seam is what holds them, right?
I found a better solution. I set my jeep down on a ledge so the muffler had to support the wieght of the jeep. In turn this pushed the floorboard up about 3" right above the muffler....no more hot floor . I promise it was done on purpose.
easiest one i saw was simply driving some bolts down through the floor, then space the threads so that you can weld a nut as a stopper half way up the threads. Now drill the air bake, slide the air back up to the stopper nut, then put a lock washer and nut on the other side, tighten and then grind off the extra threads so it doesnt hit the top of your muffler. Kinda like a haning ceiling in your basment.
I just have the optional clamp down flowmaster heat shield on my xj. If your floor is getting really hot you may think of yanking the heat mat from a zj at the pick n pull. I meant to grab one last time at the yard but i was distracted and never went back for it.
sorry i dont have pictures of either, the zj mat seemed highquality though.
