And now after Hudfab built my inner/Exo/Bumper he with his lesser knowledge of custom fab work has patched that hole leaving me with not much custom fab to show for my $7200 last year...lol...I'm sorry about your Jeep , But it just reminds me of almost going up into flames last year and the burn damage left to my jeep after spending $7200 at a shop.

I had an underhood fire coming down wheeler lake once, and was VERY glad I had an extinguisher.

I dropped down one of the obsticles, my batt decided to jump into the hood and started welding its self in place. One of the ground straps from the engine to the hood started to glow red then proceeded to light my engine harness on fire. By the time I had the hood popped and my extinguisher in hand, there was a guy with an Early Bronco opening my hood and spraying with his own extinguisher!!! It took both of our extinguishers to get it put out.

I couldnt thank the guy enough.

I was actually dropping in to give his bronco a jump because it would not start.....And guess what? My xj still jump started his bronco after some re splicing of my harness!(I also tied my batt down!!)

I now know of 3 fires in XJs while driving, just in the fourcorners section! (Crash, Jeremy, and me)

That should be enough to promt us all to carry fire extinguishers!!

I had almost bought an extinguisher that day too. Just ran out of town before I headed up there to meet Tyler and Alex. I think I'm going to move my roof rack and tire swing out onto the mini jeep so can just make it for camping rig on light trails. Will prob out my Aussie in the rest axle too.

yep, lebaron vents. there are others, but i read the lebarons are the biggest u can fit in there. i used a small cut off wheel, and cut a little small, then perfected w/a flap disc.

Hmm, i guess i should make fixing my battery mounts a priority now, one clamp bolt is stripped and the other is jammed with rust. And i used my extinguisher to put out a fire at a crash i witnessed about a year ago. (Good thing i did, driver was pinned)
