Hey guy the other night I was out playing in some snow and then switched over to rain, went home its been parked for 3 days and won't start, all I get is a clickand nothing. I am thinking my starter is froze. Also when I parked it it was in 4 hi due not wanting to tear up grass on the lawn and can't shift it out of that either. Could my transfer case and starter both be froze?

Have you checked your battery connections? Don't think any thing froze.

I did, I took sand paper to both of them. I got it going with a heat gun to the starter. Starts like a new starter again actually rolls easier now probably due to the fact the battery was weak and charging it on a smart charger. any who the idiot who i bought the jeep from is a complete moron to start, it has a rad leak, put some Bars stop leak in to hold me off for now until me and the old lady get our house and actually have a garage to work on the old girl. well sat for a day cause i couldnt get it started to run hot and the rad is still getting quite hot, let it get to operating temps and what not come back home seen steam checked it out, If the steam keeps happening i still have a leak correct? if so would it hurt to throw a plug in it, i guess old people called them peperm plugs garage here sells them for 1.00 and used them before on my old golf and sunfire and the sunfire had a decent size hole probably 2mm or more in diamater. would it hurt to throw in one after a few days?
