Default Had some fun...

And took it out into the snow. A rarity here in Tx. Let my wife drive it also since she has never driven it in 4wd and she was amazed at her level of confidence in the vehicle. Only in a Jeep!

New radiator.

Was filling up on fuel and i smelled coolant...walked around the front of the truck to see coolant pissing out of the radiator. 15 year old plastic end tank died.

Now my entire cooling system is brand new within the last 2 weeks.

Mopar CPS, 20" LED light bar, and 00 durango 136A alternator are next.

Same thing happened to my radiator a couple weeks ago. Probably a good thing my cooling system is fresh being I have a 2001.

Replaced a faulty engine coolant sensor that was the faulty one I bought from parts store. I was asked AM I sure? By the clerk, am I sure that's the problem. Felt confidant, Yes I was right. Love repairing and improving her.
