Same effort as replacing your stock fan clutch. I wouldn't say ***** nilly, but it's no extra effort

Is there any way I can calibrate the outside temp for my overhead console? It always show 10 degrees more than what it's really outside.

Replace the temperature sensor. I pulled a bunch from the junkyard, sometimes one will go out of bounds, I throw it away and put in another. Its under the front bumper. ZJs have them, shaped a little different but actually easier to work with.

Alright guys, just hooked up a new stereo in my jeep. And it has no power. I know I got all wires connected correctly. So I check the fuses and my radio/stereo fuse is missing. I pulled out a new fuse and was gonna plug it in but it looks like one of the plugs that the prongs go into is missing. I'm lost, anybody know what's wrong here? Also, the jeep had no stereo in it when I bought it.

Installed the advance auto fan clutch and it has intermittently been hitting the small crossmember on my new radiator. Seems to hit it only while im accelerating from a dead stop. thinking about cutting the crossmember out. any suggestions?
