When you do a double fan put one in front of the radiator, and the other left of the clutch fan. And I would go to pick n pull and snag a couple fans. They go for about 14 bucks. The factory should have put a connector next to the air box for a AUX Cooling fan. If not then run them both off a 20 Amp switch.

Thanks. I ordered a new fan and relay kit off eBay for $30. I think one aux fan is enough. I went wheelin this weekend and it did not over heat once with just the one fan.

I did however burry the jeep and my FIL ripped off my bumper pulling me out. Haha. I hadn't put any recovery hooks on it yet. Guess that will be top priority before my next trip. I will post pics later.

When I removed my sway bar (up front) I used one of the existing holes as a mounting point for my hook. And drilled the second hole. It's a solid mounting point.

How does it handle on the highway without the sway bar?

Hey guys sorry to interrupt your guys thred but I really need some help. I was passing throw Texas on i10 in the middle of San Antonio and Huston and I stopped at the buc ees right off of I 10 and my dog got loose. He took off and wouldn't stop. We went looking for him and had no luck. I'm posting this out of hope that maybe one of you have spotted him or found him or know someone who has! My family misses him very much. he was lost on 6/31/13 He had a blue leash and caller on but they may have came off. Ill post some pics. If you have any info please call me at (520)9045455 anytime. Or message me on here. Thank you guys for your time. And happy wheeling!

Idk about him, but when my swaybar was off it was definitely a pucker factor. Every decent size hole I hit, the jeep would jump all over. On the highway it still rode straight but just hope there's no big gusts of wind
