Im not sure how it would effect cold weather warmup and such, but its an easy swap back to the 195. My fan does run more with the 180 also.

Thats 3.40 each stud, autozone had them for 2.90 each. Im cool with that to hold all four tires to the jeep. I had some that where pretty messed up, might as well switch them all and avoid a headache down the road(literally).

The o2 itself might be good, but the wiring harness may not, check and see what kind of power is running through the harness with a Multi meter
