Going to look at small breather filters when i get a chance. I had the intake cleaned before our trip and now want to get the oil breather out of my intake as well as the vent mods Andy mentioned. Also need to cut/grind the bolts on the oil skid to get it off and change the trany fluid. Then new bolts to reinstall (old ones are stripped). Maybe a radiator repacement as well. I'll wait for Andy on that one :wink:

The JEEP THING is going on with my radiator :evil:

. Leaks just enough to be annoying. Like a Harley :roll:

.
My dad said Plastic?!?!?!?! What the?!?!?!. I just told him, it's a Jeep thing don't try to understand. Now he's looking for an old Jeep to play with.

Brad, where did you get your radiator from with the good price? If the price is still good I will pick one up to have it ready for the next party.

I meant soon as in sometime before Summer, so there is time for others to get projects together. Or until my radiator fails.

Try 1-800-RADIATOR. They have a warehouse in town, same day delivery/pick-up. I bought their Heavy Duty replacement for my Cherokee and as I recall the price was VERY reasonable.

Justin...

Seems like a lot of repairs and mods. Wouldn't it be easier to raise the body and slip a new jeep under it. :roll:

Just kidding. Actually, I do have one or two things I could get done. If Ed's garage is open for business, I'm in.

Justin would not want to do this!
It would remove all his preplaced mud to help hide the other leaks he does not tell anyone about.

allright, allright If there is this much interest in getting some work done I guess that I can make it so. The earliest that I can even find my garage floor is the 27th of January. To many projects going, and to much junk. If this date works and you want to work on your rig or someone elses just post up. I got stuff to do to my rig, might find time as I clean the garage, or not. Let me know if this is a good date

Ed...

At this point the 27th sounds good for me. I still have that skid plate to install under the oil pan.

However, don't go out of your way. I'm in no hurry. If the 27th is too soon, I can wait. Let me know. :wink:

I installed one of those 3 core metal radiators in my XJ last summer and never had any cooling issues since.
