I have a set of JBA Headers coming they are for some other year ranger that has EGR on the passenger side. I need to plug this hole, anyone know the thread size? Or can I just weld it shut.

thanks!

 

goto a parts store, they should have "bung plugs".
lol yes, thats what they are called i think..

hardware stores should have something too, idk tho, they will most likely be steel.

you could always find a short bolt that will fit in it if that fails.

 

WTF zach. I gatta save money. Lol your just like me when you find a deal you gatta have it!.

Why not have your dad weld something?

 

being on the header it will probably look best TIGed shut..

or just cap that mo

 

thanks for the ideas guys.

no one has thread info? all well Ill figure it out.

Josh- your right. lol cant pass up them deals!

 

take it to a machine shop they can find out pitch and size and all them goodies..

 

Evan are you forgetting where I work??? I am sitting in a 60k sq ft machine shop as I type...

 

On my lightning a 3/4" hose plug off fitting worked perfectly. Not to sure about your headers...

I really hope it is that easy.

 

Mine was. I just bought a *heavy wall* brass end cap / plug for a regular garden hose at home depot. Worked fine.

Duct tape!

 

then you should be well off and figure it out son..

how much those set you back if you dnt me asking sir

 

haha Ill figure it out I just wanted to ask! lol

 

stick your finger in the hole. It worked for Denmark it should work for you.

 

And a zip tie. What else is going to hold it to the block.

 

lol you guys are nuts.

 

leave it open! its less restriction for sure! like 10extra ponies!


unscrew your egr fitting on the factory manifolds(if you have egr) if not, i say jus get it welded up, chances are once they are on, you wont want to take them off ha

 

please tell me you are just messing around.

 

we tapped the hole and put two plugs in. it should keep it shut.

thanks for the help

 

When you installing them?

 

maybe saturday
