Today I got new fan clutch installed. Haven't taken for a test drive yet so I don't know how much it helps but I figure it can't hurt

Today I took Roxanne wheeling at Peter's Mill but had to buy her some parts to get home. She got a new alternator and belt from autozone today, installed in the parking lot on the way back. I need to get alternator tested again cuz when hey checked new one in the vehicle it said the voltage regulator was bad. Hmmm...

This weekend Roxanne got new front brake pads and rotors as well as her new bumper and new fog lights and we even fixed one of her transmission line leaks and hooked the electric fan to a toggle switch.

Last weekend I heard some extra noise after I started my jeep a few times. We got home and inspected it and I was missing a bolt for the starter and the other was backing out. This morning had a racket coming from under jeep and we found that the bell housing bolts had backed out and the torque converter bolts were backing out too. Lots of fun

She's getting a little cooler now after another flush and trying the 180 thermostat. I also replaced the boots on the brake caliper pins, they are moving much better now.
