Pulled the head on the new jeep last night. Looks like the head gasket is fine but there is a small hole on one of the coolant passages between the 2nd and 3rd cylinder and 3rd and 4th. Is that enough to cause the problems of a possible blown head gasket? Going to drop the head off later at the machine shop to have them deck it then I'll toss it back on

Don't worry I knew he was ok hours before I made my comment. My first response to him when he texted me the pics was asking if he was ok. He's been giving me crap for like two years that I'm going to roll so because I know he's ok it is only right that I give him crap through every avenue possible!

ThatPurpleXJ Quote; Woops!
That's one of my biggest fears! I'm glad your OK. Did you have everything strapped in? Looks like if you did they didn't hold well? I made anchors for that reason and strap spare axle shafts strapped down, I would hate to have them bust loose while I take a tumble.
