Easy fix

 

Care to explain? haha
Not gonna be able to do it till it warms up and I think I am going to have to take out the PS pump to do it :|

 

You shouldn't have to take it out. If anything just unbolt.it and move it out of the way, leave the hoses attatched.

 

Sounds good...now to just find a heated garage
Any brands of water pumps you guys recommend?

 

X2 on heated garage I need to change my oil...

 

Don't know about the brand but I have a 1.5 car with a heater, in the springs. I will help for free, so I can see how hard it is for when I have to do mine. I hope never but that ain't the truth with 195,000

 

Get a NAPA water pump.

 

The springs is a tad far away; 83 miles to be exact.... but if it means i can get it fixed sooner then I might be willing to go up there.
Found the NAPA water pump...42 bucks, not too bad.

 

I'm willing to open up my garage to anybody too if they need it. Much better than doing anything outside right now! I'm in Parker if needed.

 

That is definitely a lot closer than CO Springs...I might have to take you up on that offer in the near future.

 

Started today on C470. The jeep seemed to lose power. Slowed and then picked up power again. But I can here a whomp whomp whomp noise as if something is grinding in the rear end. I just cleaned out my pumpkin about a month ago. Fluid is good and splines are all intact. Did some searches on CF and it sounds like my rear brakes might be shot? at least one side? What do you all think?

 

rear brakes would be start. possbily a cracked drum. carrier bearings, rear driveshaft ujoint, also could be your fuel pump. i know it sounds weird but ive heard them make some crazy noises. also is your catalytic converter the original? id check that out too. if its clogged could explain the loss in power.

 

Power is back. It only I'm thinking brakes. Hoping it's just that. I'll pull it into the garage at frist light and pull the tires and drums. I'll peek at joints and shafts as well.

 

When it's cold out my 8.25 locks the passenger side drum if I use the parking brake.

 

that happens a lot on older vehicles. my ranger would freeze up... just dont use the e brake when it gets cold out
