Jp,
who did you go up there with? Seems like radiators are a reocurring theme for us.
Saw Frank's pics on Pirate and Bam!,.there you were.:rubeyes:
You hanging out with a bunch of Jeep guys now? I understand,the Broko croud is always broke and the Jeep's are nice enough to let you borrow parts! The Little White Jeep is proud of you!

Can someone make a radiator guard out of Aluminum? Don't want a harder metal digging in to the radiator.
Strap it in at the bottom? Am I missing something here?

chuzie Wrote:This is probably worthy of a new thread but should we not be looking for solutions to prevent this from happening to our expensive aluminium radiators? I for one am not willing to trash $500.00 worth of radiator.
JP- sorry dude, that sucks!!!
It was really a bad design on the shourd...the shroud has a lip about a half inch where the fan was alot closer too than the the radiator... so the body flex and the motor torque/flex put the mech. fan into that small peice of the shourd and ouch ouch ouch ouch ouch :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

Good to see that ya'll were still able to have fun even with the carnage. How did you like the 435 on the trail? Good Pics!
Man that tranny made a world of difference...but really need a front bumper...I think that would have helped some body damage to my grill and front fender
broncomatt Wrote:Jp, sorry to see your carnage. I thoght you had it dialed in. I can show you how to stop that radiator damage from happening again.
Dont sweat the body damage, as for the steering lincage, time to upgrade to heim stuff.

yeah I really thought I had it dailed in also...some mud bogs/ravenel hills/mostly bypasses at URE but when I put it on a "REAL" deal it was sad...ouch $500 down the drain:crying::crying::banghead::banghead::crying: :crying:
