what did you do to your MJ today?

[johnnyc]

Hopefully fixed my cooling system. A few weeks ago, I overheated twice going up to Big Bear. Funny thing is that once I got home, it never ran hot, even sitting in traffic.

 

But I had a CSF radiator and Hesco water pump sitting in the garage, so I decided to throw them on the Jeep. Also put on a Hesco thermostat housing, Stant thermostat, ZJ fan clutch, and a new lower hose. And I went to the junkyard to get a lower hose spring.

 

All went well except for that stupid disconnect for the tranny cooler. It started leaking pretty badly, so I just took the disconnect off, cut the hose, and double clamped it to the outlet on the radiator. No more leaks.

 

The needle sits just below the 210 mark. I guess the real test will be uphill highway driving and slow rock crawling. But I'm pretty sure everything is okay now. By replacing so many parts at once, I don't know which one was the culprit. I'm betting on the fan clutch and a collapsed lower hose.

Took it for a 400 mile jaunt on I-5. MPG averaged out about 20-22 keeping it in the 60-65 mph range and 500# in the rear. I think I'll check it again soon just to confirm that.

[comanche12]

[comanche12]

that's known as stealing and you shouldn't do it. :no:

[comanche12]

its not steal. the oem headlight is still look new and not look even worn out. maybe its recently replace from preowner?

 

and thats for fair to make me paid them and drive all the way to get wrong parts two times.

You took their new part and returned your used part. That is stealing. You're just making up excuses.

 

Meaning of word "return": (transitive) To give something back to its original holder or owner.

 

What you did was "exchange" and it was not an equal exchange either.

:agree: also why i don't ever post the particulars of anything illegal that ive done lol. which isnt much but still....

[comanche12]

ok I'm sorry sir, i won't do it again then. :oops: :fool:

but anyway next project on my mj is replace my belll housing from ba 10/5 :fs1:

 

i can't wait to get a job then find ax15 :(

Recently I hooked up a new CB antenna.

 

 

After all was said and done the SWR was 1- 1.35 on channel 19.

 

I also installed Bilsteins front shocks (for the 1st time) that I grabbed at picknpull.

 

 

Going see these babies are all what people say they are.

[comanche12]

just reseal my front differential and holy crap look at those oil and debris from inside of differential housing :eek:

:roll: guess preowner didnt care about the cover seal and breather during wheelin.

 

ps: lucky the differential gears seems look fine and still in shape plus no metal shaving as i feel the texture from oil.

 

wanna see more about it? go to my project thread.

then afterware i just saw a coolant going to be dripping front bottom of crankshaft balancer which is a slow leaking... :( its too dark outside to try find where leak come from :fs1:

[Geonovast]

Touched it for the first time in a week. Hopefully this weekend I can do something productive to it now that the rest of my parts are here.

 

Also got this the past week. :D Crappy pic but couldn't find the real camera.

 

[Jakeman17]

Drove it

[comanche12]

put new gear oil in my front d44 and pulled a axle shaft out my 9" rear to see what kind shaft and bearing is it. its a "big bear" with 30 spline :) pretty good shaft for me.
