IN My defense....a JK on 37's needed his lockers for this ledge. It was nearly as tall as my 32's

Fixed my back hatch today. I had to bang on the door in strategic places to get it open. So i disassembled the latch and found the culprit. The clip on the rod that jeep uses is cheap and slips. So i re adjusted it, and zip tied it in place. Can now open the door with my pinky.

Well i thought i solved my running hot issues. This weekend after running up a trail rather fast, i stopped at camp and coolant was boiling out of the overflow bottle. My mechanical guage said 2225 and my dash guage showed 215. At this point, i am thinking new radiator. I have flushed entire system, new hoses, new water pump thermostat, clutch fan. It gets warm when climbing the mountain pass or grades on the interstate, but stays around 215 220 when running trails. I am not burning coolant, my oil is not milky negating a head gasket. However i do smell a strong burning glycol smell, which i am attributing to the coolant boiling over the overflow and burning on the exhaust pipe. Only other thing i can think of is the tranny is running hot and adding to the issue in the heat exchanger in the radiator.

Well i jsut had an Epiphone. I remembered that my fan shroud is only above the fan, well after looking at a few pictures, it appears to me that the bottom of my fan shroud is missing, which might attribute to my running warm in low speed issues......GAH i feel like an idiot. Off to the junkyard i go!
