Good news is I might not be deployed to Trashcanistan. The only catch is due to my knowledge of equipment and soils, I'm probably going to be put on the DRF (Disaster Relief Force) instead. Meaning, I will have to go help out with various disaster relief operations pertaining to flooding, earthquakes, tornadoes or hurricanes. We go help the people and clean up.

On a Jeep related note, American Racing makes Torq Thrust Ds in 15x7 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and 3.75" of backspacing.
So. Damn. Tempting.

Life man. At least you get to go out and serve your country. That's got to give you a sense of pride. Lately I have been wishing I would have gone into the military after highschool.

No issue found with water pump even used a pressure cleaner in block while pump was off, nothing nada zilch clean as a whistle. So seeing i had it that far apart I pulled the radiator. Using garden hose on it got rust chunks again figured what do i got to loose started tapping with hammer and out came more chunks. Only thing I can figure heater core compromised and ****s breaking loose causeing this . So bypassed it and another new radiator third one in 9 months . Now we wait.

Im down to either passages in block are compromised or water pump blades are not functioing properly. Pumps at least 4 years old right now its good on town driving its long runs where issue starts. Finances are tight seeing I just moved. So aint brooke aint fixing it comes to mind.
