Ok so a little more detail. I Did my break line a couple days ago. Went to work to day fine and dandy. A co works says "Hey your Jeep is pissing all over the parking lot" My reaction was "Yea it does that". She says "No its leaking antifreeze all over." So I go out and all over is a big puddle of anitfreeze. Oops. SO I look its either The water pump, the lower hose and its clamp or the pump gasket. They are the only thing I havent replaced in the cooling system.
Bought a $10 gallon of collant from udf waied until I left filled the rad. up, and the resovoir. Then filled the gallon woth water and drove home. No overheating Did just fine. But my belt squeeled all the way home. Thought it was just wet. Get home look and Im not leaking anywhere close to how it was at work. And the belt is dry but still squeeling. Im thinking the pump finally went.
Time for a major dose of preventative maintenance!!!!
Pump,Hose,Gasket,Valve cover gasket, Coolant, Balljoints,
(because I never got to get them yet)
got my TREs today tho, just gotta put them on.
I wanna do the front brake hard-lines soon too.
If I ever get outta this break down rut I wanna go with you guys to this grandparents house and Help forge trails. I need new pin stripes...

Oh no Ill be ready. Im doing this pump and TREs tomorrow. Ill be ready soon. I got money burning a hole in the credit card to fix the jeep.
You go to the store to buy car parts.
Pump & gasket $50. Lower Rad. hose $20. T-stat $10. The look on your face when your total comes to $250. Priceless.

I'm down for it. I've been here in Columbus for a year and still really don't have any friends, work, school, family, not a lot of time for much else. What better way to make some then gettin dirty forging trails. I can get a hold of a chainsaw and got a 9000lbs chain to hook up and pull some things down.
