I bet your heat isn't blowing very hot and your gas milage sucks too.
Always use the 195* thermostat. Changing to a 180* isn't fixing an overheating issue, It's just hiding it with many negative side effects.

There's a guy on CL that wants to buy a D35 for a jeep. He's got $100. Thinkin I should maybe take my axle out and sell it then go buy a better one at the Jy. Easy to do?
