That Pete 379 sure is GORGEOUS!



I was just poking around my engine bay and noticed a bolt had backed out of the water pump bracket but held up against the heater tube, which had never sealed well and now had a tiny leak. Soooo,

I took off the tube, cleaned it, tightened down the bolt, and re-installed the tube. Hopefully the leak is gone.

Rotated tires.

Ripped off the old Recon Big Rig lights that I installed in 2009 and replaced with Wally world cheapo leds. They look great but time will tell. The Recons lasted about five years before the passenger side died.

Transmission was hunting for gears, installed remote screw on type filter before cooler and problem solved. This is third time filter change has resolved my transmission issues.

Default radio

I know this is a non tech forum but my non cd radio quit. Should I put in a genuine moper cd radio or go after market. I prefer NOT having dials & would like not to wire just PLUG in like the factory. A cd w/ mp3 to just plug in would be perfect. Im don't care if Crutchfields are better just simple for me please. call it NEAT
Thanks

There are a couple of people on eBay selling factory radios modified with an MP3 jack. Just plug in and play. No wiring mods or fit issues. Sounds like what you're looking for.

Found as an example. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jeep-Wrangle...tSohSe&vxp=mtr

Installed a new hydraulic kit for my clutch. WOW!

Clutch is now butter smooth in and out. No more squeaking or grinding. Thought it was going to be the bearing again but its not. Easy in and out installation. Kit was just under $100 from rockauto for genuine sachs.

Discovered it had a remote start system I didn't know about. Fumbled the key fob and was startled when the engine fired up.
