89 MJ Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 Today is the beginning of my road trip with my family and some family friends out to Niagara Falls and then the All Breeds Jeep Show. I’m going to be driving the MJ the whole way. Today’s plan is to go from Holmen, WI and end up past Gary, IN. The current plan is to leave at 1:00. Stay tuned for the evening update with how far we actually made it.

I could, but the truck is home at this point and I am 2.5 hours away. I’m not putting a closed loop cooling system back in it either. No sense in keeping the system that has failed on me twice now. 26 minutes ago, Chad R said: You close to SW Michigan I was halfway between my home and Madison, WI near Tomah.

Pete M Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 you can just swap in a later radiator with the cap and be on your way. no need to mess with the rest of the system right now. upgrade it later on at your leisure.

Three is too many. 7 hours ago, Pete M said: you can just swap in a later radiator with the cap and be on your way. no need to mess with the rest of the system right now. upgrade it later on at your leisure. I could have, but now the truck is home and we are back on the way to PA with my mom’s JKU.
