So I would make a 50/50 mix. Next you need to check your fan clutch. Then you need to check your water pump.

96xj said it perfectly. Water alone is a good temp fix if your out on the road without coolant but itll evap fast and not cool well especially in this heat. Anti-freeze(coolant) ftw. Drain all the water refill accordingly and run her for a bit. If she still overheateing above 210-215 then go further into it

Sorry, I'm confused. When people suggest tearing out the carpet to find, repair and prevent rust, is the carpet returned? Or is the carpet tossed and the interior sealed like a truck bed?
If the carpet is recommended to be returned, why? If the interior is to be sealed like a truck bed, is por 15 all I need?
Thanks.

So I need a new drag link end. But the problem is I cant find anything. I searched for a tie rod end and nothing is similar. So my question is what do I search? Thanks. Also it's the right side one needs replaced that attaches straight to the knuckle.

try this. It might be the golden rule of no no but next time you shift take a couple of semi tight turns if she hops or you hear the 4wd you ok. But if you turnin in 4wd and you aint hopping yea the linkage is off.
Ok so I've heard that JK rear UCA can be used as LCA for my XJ so my question is would it work on mine with a 3.5 inch lift and would it be a bolt on job or would some modifications have to be made
