There was 3 questions there. Your first sentance could be a question.

Yes you can just bypass it until you are ready for the tedious task of removing the dash to replace it.

You do not need to do it in a rush manner at all. Do it when you're ready.

 

so I have to bypass by routing a hose from the metal tube on water pump to the thermostat housing, correct?

What would happen if I just left it as is and run the engine with the core being clogged.

 

Ok guys, my track bar is popping/clicking when I turn the wheel to the right. I thought I just needed to tighten it, but its tight as hell and it still does it.

For some reason the whole jeep moves up by about an inch as i turn the wheel left, and it lowers back down as I turn the wheel right..... any ideas?

It's an aftermarket track bar and it's only a year old.

 

Logan, any idea how the 97'+ xj's rain gutter trim is removed? A tree smashed mine down, I hammered it back up to get the door open. It looks to either be glued on or perhaps it slides on from the front or back.

 

I'm not really sure about 97+, I would assume it had clips too but I'm not sure.

 

Yes, then no.

 

Thats what I figured however what info is out there, which is nearly nothing, mentions is being possibly glued down. Il probably just leave it. Thanks for your input!

 

Just epoxy them back on lol

 

So jeep overheated once today to 240 Coolant started overflowing from the overflow tank. Stopped it for a bit till temps cooled down. Now I have a winch bumper with no winch but for the trip we places a cooler in the spot where the winch was. I suspected it was blocking the radiator which caused the jeep to over heat. I removed I and it did not overheat again....was wondering if blocking the grill area would cause it to overheat...also should I worry about any permanent damage to my 98

 

True story eh. Ours come with snow gutters.

Yes

 

What would cause my heater to blow ice cold air as if the a/c was on?

 

Living in Minnesota

Okay... blocked heater core or busted heater control valve or vacuum leak to HCV.

 

Is there a way to unblock the heater core?

 

Remove the hoses, get a spray nozzle on the garden hose, or use pressurized air and flush it both ways. Once you get good flow you can fill up up with CLR, let it sit for about 15 minutes then flush it again both ways until you get all the chemical out. Be careful though because the heater core can only handle so much pressure before it causes a leak. There are videos you look up on YouTube to show you how to do it.
