    What have you done to your JEEP today

    Last Friday my jeep left on a tow-truck. It's being towed to a local shop for an engine rebuild. Hopefully it'll be done in a few weeks.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    to my untrained eye, that looks like how I have mine hooked-up. What is different with your setup? (besides the on-off taps) Thanks

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Thanks for the That MV magazine article was one of my research sources for this project. I used it to determine my coolant piping locations/coolant sources. I don't have a heater though

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    yes please. I was copying several coolant filter installs I read on the forum, but if there is a correct way to do it, them I'm all ears. *** edit*** on edit, it looks like I should have made a loop between the coolant jacket & water pump then run a second loop (off that loop) for my filter)...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I finally got that pipe plug on my water pump broken loose and the last half of my coolant filter installed. The plug took a 5/8th 8pt socket attached to a 2ft breaker bar. I installed everything with copious amounts of anti-seize to avoid this issue in the future. After I mounted everything, I...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    yea there is a place in town I have used a few times to repair my cargo cover. I'll probably end up taking it to them once I inspect the damage.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Yesterday we had some severe storms blow through with 1.5in hail and 60mph winds (we are forecasted to have severe storms all week...ugh) The cargo cover on my truck took a beating and I think it's done. It had been on its last leg for a while and had a repair, on a repair, on a repair...that...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Nice truck! You don't see too many long boys running around these days. Today I changed my oil filters and started my coolant filter install. Unfortunately, one stubborn 3/4 npt pipe plug is ruining my weekend plans. the upper pipe plug came out without any issues but his big brother is...

    Almost bought a truck today

    I actually wish my truck was NA...it's one less thing I have to worry about breaking. I've more or less decided that when my turbo dies I'm going to replace it with a normal exhaust setup and just run NA

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    UPS was delayed. Originally, my filters were scheduled to be delivered yesterday. I had planned on changing the filters this morning and then taking it in for the oil change this afternoon. Since UPS had a delay, I went ahead and did the oil today and will do the filters when they arrive...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Today I went to a local diesel shop and had them drain/refill the oil in the truck. Tomorrow my new oil filters, coolant filters, and coolant filter mount should arrive (assuming UPS is on the ball). Unfortunately UPS delivers to my area between 6-8pm so I'll have to wait until next week to...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    when you do your greasing, do you just do a few squirts per zerk or do you fully push out all the old grease? I do a mix of both depending on I feel that day
