My jeep overheated this past weekend.. was driving up a gravel trail and the temp gauge was showing just over 210, didn't think much of it.. suddenly shot all the way up to 260 and check gauges light came on.. ended up just being the thermostat, hopefully my 0331 head survived the heat

It should be fine as long as thats the first time it happened and you didnt keep running it. Im having overheating issues myself, goes to almost 240 sitting still but goes back to 210 once in on the road and moving. If i stop it goes up fast, like really fast

is there anyone going out anytime soon? im in renovo and been looking foward to going out soon.

got a 93 with 4.5 lift. dana 44 rear with disc brakes, 3.73 LSD and a dana 30 up front locked. 99+ intake manifold. tb spacer. 4 hole injectors just some small stuff here and there.

also the 4.0 got a hard beating last time and now i got a wrist pin knock. soon to be building my 4.7 stroker.

anyways ill keep an eye out on here in case anyone got plans to go out soon.
one thing im missing right now is a winch so its better to go out with others since last time i got stuck it was a blast getting out haha.

gonna need new tires soon. anyone got a new 245/75/16 goodyear mtr? im looking for the old style. my fronts are worn out and i got a brand new spare just need one more . thanks

all i gotta do is get a few compression fittings for my transmission cooler lines.
the damn ones that go in the transmission and are held in by plastic clips.
long story short i had it blow out on me on my way to harrisburg and left me sitting on the side of the road.
thats not the first time i had that problem. so im gonna change it all to a nice solid setup with compression fittings.
which is cheaper then buying new lines.

what time you guys planning all this?
