Glad your alright. The other day a member had his Cherokee hook him up when he was on a date. His heater core was leaking and apparently his date had to remove her wet pants. I bet he hugged his Cherokee also when he got home, haha

Mine started messing up today. Ive got a new radiator and fan clutch from autozone which are slightly larger than stock. and today after a week and a half of driving with no shroud, my fan will hit the black metal in front of it on takeoffs. It really freaked me out hearing that noise and i dont know why it suddenly started happening today but im gonna take a look at it tomorrow.

EXTREMELY JEALOUS.... I am an avid duck hunter and have never personally seen a goldeneye I would love to see it mounted up... On another note I filled up the wj and it broke my heart spending eighty just on gas...

Tuned my CB antenna. Less than 1.75 SWR on all channels, 15-25 1.3 SWR or lower. Sounds good!

You gotta get an SWR meter. Rat Shack has them for $37 bucks, you hook it up inline between the radio and antenna, adjust the antenna (some have a collar that you move the antenna up and down, some have a screw up top, and im sure there are other styles)
Its pretty easy, much better to DIY than pay a truck stop $80 to do 30 minutes of work
