Any Jeep folks here?

It’s a Cult. Can cost as much as a Hellcat too. Jeez.

95 yj rear frame repair. I forgot to take in progress pics, but drivers side done. I got side tracked during the week so it's still taking prime shop space up. I need this thing back on the road, a Cummins is expensive to feed for a daily driver.
Trip to welding supply in the morning, ran out of gas on the front- as if you can't tell.

1962 CJ6 24K miles, family owned since new. Was used at a hunting cabin in Kosherm UT. Took 9 months to find someone to remake the top. It was sitting in my father in-law's
garage in Golden valley Az for 28 years.

It would be nice to see a Jeep forum here! I’m on a couple of other Jeep forums but nothing beats our FBBO !

Would it be "FJO", "FCJO", "FXJO", "FAMCO", "FWO" or other?

I have 2 presently. I have a 77 CJ-5 that is a real golden eagle version when they first came out. We, my wife and I, did a total restoration couple years ago. The CJ-5 is retired now meaning no off road anymore since her previous life was pretty rough. So anyway after owning her for 40 some years here she is.
The other is my wife's 18 jl Moab version, lifted with a winch and on board air

I am having some mild overheating issues with my xj which I hear is very common.
One was my temp sender on thermostat housing was bad, fixed that now my electric fan comes on. Nice!!
Next very minor leak in plastic radiator tank so I am upgrading to a Mishimoto one. Warranty is great and made in USA.
Of course this snowballs into fan clutch is all wet like oil leaking. Do it now!!
I hope this does the trick.
Summer is upon us.
Adjusting the valves on my R/T will have wait tell next week.

My 96 has the same, I did a prestone flush, careful if you try the block plug. After the treatment it stayed a click over 200 going slow.
Hate to say it, but change your water pump since you're draining anyway, especially if it's an original unit.

Since you're swapping to
a aluminum rad, don't forget
the Water Wetter.

I did try the flush and my system must clean because it drained out very clean and did a couple freeze plugs awhile back and block looked good for 300,000 .
I did put a pump in last year and it feels good. Thanks for ideas

Do you believe in water wetter?
I am just skeptical of that type stuff.

Yep.
It brought the temps down
15 degress. From 200 to
185 in my 440. No other
changes other than adding
the stuff.

 

[JackR]

Are you sticking with stock 4.0?

Yes 4.0 but it is worked a little bit with ported head and header. It really runs great.

I had a 94 jeep Cherokee, country. Bought it new and 6 years later the plastic radiator took a dump. It was so dried out, the nipple for the overflow hose on the neck fell off. It went through thermostat every other year like clock work. Had a 2004 grand Cherokee, rocky mountain edition, 4.0. 2006 wrangler sport, 1998 Sahara and two Camanches, 1988 and a 1991. I had a lot of luck with that 4.0. Engine and never a tranmission failure. The 98 had a 2 inch lift kit, springs and shocks. I think the only thing that I needed was the shifter extension kit for the transfer case. If I remember, more than 2 inches it becomes more of a job.

Well, I wasn't really in the market for a new Jeep but this followed me home.

2013 6spd 60k 1 owner, couldn't resist.
It replaced my 1995 YJ-

Wife posted it on FB, sold in 4hrs.
