Changed the oil. Only 4k on the OCI but looked pretty dirty.

I twisted the OEM spring clamp on my lower rad hose so had to put one of those God awful worm style ones on. I've had to tighten it twice now cuz of small drips. Gotta get a new OEM one this week.

Found my breather tube was off the front diff. Made sort of a mess and had a big chunk out of the end. It looked like it had been rigged with a tiny keystone clamp (that's what I've always called those pinch clamps). Anyone know what type of clamp if any normally holds it? I was thinking of using a heavy duty zip tie but just trimming the end and shoving it on seemed to be pretty secure.

John got a link to your vents installation? How about a shot with hood open from inside?
KJ's could use some ventilation. In summer can cook tin foil wrapped hot dogs in no time!

Today I vacuumed inside Jeep only to get leaves blown in, cause I left the window open...

Pictures of mine, the ones I did for Wildmans and also 501s over on LOST

Jeeeez Tom how may vents have you installed over there?
Most of the posts I found were dating around 2006.
I know I am not brave enough to do this myself.
Will see if some customizers shops locally got some ideas for me....
I really like the initial looks of this!

We've cut a few hoods up here :icon_lol:
So do you want a "forced air intake" or do you want vents to get some of the hot air out? Two different things when looking to see what will work.
Plus not hard to cut the hood just measure a few times and make sure where you want it. You can feel the heat coming up out of these for sure

What does the hockey puck do up there? :shrug:

Ever since the wife's van died I have to use the KJ to haul plywood and such. Those big sheets just don't fit right in the back of the Jeep. So I added the crossbars and after reading how the factory rails can break with to much weight I cut a hockey puck in half and mounted it under the rails at the midpoint. My hope is when carrying wood and other things it will help spread the load across 3 points each side rather than two.

Yes sir & thank you! I just didn't want to put you out there as the KJ country phone a friend.

Did he speak with an Indian accent and tell you his name was "Joe" when you called? I mean, that's the way a lot of the computer companies handle their phone support. :icon_lol:

Put in my third radiator in, in the past 5 months. First one lasted over 4 months and second one only 2 weeks. Oh well I guess next one will be a mopar one. Also figured while I was working on a radiator I changed my thermostat as well.
