A couple days ago I started rolling the back window down and realized I was rolling the wrong one since I needed the front passenger window but when I tried to roll the back passenger window up, there was nothing. There was no noise or vibrating or anything. It was almost like the window was...

2003 WJ Overland 4.7 HO with hydraulic fan I am working through a radiator replacement, it has been a giant PITA. Including I just kinked one of the transmission cooler lines that connects to the radiator, so now I am going to have to build a new one because the part is discontinued and...

This is a new Crown Heavy Duty 2 Core Radiator for Manual or Automatic Transmission. It's for the 4.2 L/ 258 cid engine. I has all copper top and bottom tanks and the core size is 16 7/8" x 24 3/8" and is 2 rows. It fits the 81-83 CJ5, 81-86 CJ7 and the 81-85 CJ8. They sell for $491 at...

Not sure if this is related, but my XJ has been acting weird since I replaced a damaged exhaust header. 1999 XJ 4DR, 4WD, 4.0 with 150,000 miles. The exhaust header was cracked wide open near the collector and I finally replaced it after the noise was just too annoying. The old one was...

This issue boggles me and my Mechanic. I have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. 90k miles. This summer I noticed that as I sat idling in the pick-up line at my son's school, my Jeep would "surge" a bit. The RPMs would rise a tad, and the temperature gauge would go from 1/2 to 3/4 in a matter of...

Hello! I've been working off and on with my 2000 WJ 4.7 for a while, and recently moved to central Texas. First, the AC system failed, then I noticed the vehicle overheating regularly at highway speeds. It stays right at 210 in town, and no overheating issues until it gets out on the highway...

Lately my 06 5.7L has been losing coolant. I find it on the ground, but can't find a leak. I've checked the overflow tank, it's fine. I can see the temp gauge go slightly hotter than normal, then it'll drop back down to where it always is. No smell of antifreeze boiling on the bock. I did...

During a recent drive in my 79 CJ5 the engine fan destroyed my radiator after going over a bump. I'm working with a local shop to see how/why that happened, but in the meantime I need a new radiator and fan. They are recommending that I take this opportunity to pair the new radiator with an...

I bought this 99 jeep wrangler sahara last winter and it had a small coolant leak around bottom hoses. We put new hoses on it, (The radiator was brand new) and made sure that it was tight and it still had a small coolant leak around the bottom hoses only. We could not pin point why it leaked it...

Hi all, I'm on my second aftermarket radiator in a year or two and am wondering if there are any issues. The first radiator had a cracked plastic tank, I replaced it with one I think from O'Reilly, which lasted barely a year before a leak occurred in the upper passenger corner, looks like...

Hey guys, ran into an issue after replacing Radiator, Water Pump and Stat hoping for some guidance. Anyway. last fall I had bypassed my heater core after it was leaking. I bought a new one, drained and flushed the system, removed the dash, replaced the core, refilled the coolant and it seemed...

Hey there Jeepfolk. In the fall I replaced my heater core (not fun) in my 2005 TJ. All looked good except I recently noticed that maple syrup smell again (this time outside the car). Looking under the hood it seems the radiator is leaking (typical signs of coolant in the seams at the top and...

It's slightly damaged in shipping. I want to get going on my XJ cooling system upgrade but returning this will set me back a week or maybe more. It looks like all the seams are not cracked or other obvious damage that would leak, but I suppose I might not find out until it's under pressure. This...

Due to recent overheating issues, I've decided to do some cooling system work. I believe my overheating problem may be related to the PO using Bars stopleak in the system and now that crap is all over in there. I think it's plugged up the heater core and probably the radiator to an extent also...

I feel like I've lived on this forum the past month, but finally am posting to try and get answers. I'm going to start from the beginning... 2010 Unlimited Sahara w/ 110k miles. I noticed this past summer my passengers side floor board was always wet, which it continued being wet until replacing...

My local mechanic says he can't find the radiator drain plug (or is it called a pet cock?) for my 2017 Patriot. He seemed to think it didn't actually HAVE one. So I have two questions: where is the drain plug (or whatever it's called) located? Is this a valid thing for a mechanic to not be able...

Hey there, I have been having a lot of issues with my 98 Cherokee. Bought it a year ago this month and as I was driving it home for the first time she overheated and proceeded to pour a Niagara Falls of coolant from underneath my front end. This struck me as odd because the water pump and...

Hey guys, i have an 85 cj7 with a 258. I was 4xing on the weekend and lost another radiator due to my fan hitting the tank and gouging it open. This is the second time now and can't afford having this keep happening. I lost the first rad about a week into owning the jeep. Afterwards i realized...

Hey there- Major newbie here. 1999 Grand Cherokee inline 6 w/ 4.0. 195,000 Have a radiator fluid leak when parked downhill. Not actual radiator as I never hear steam.. slow drain from reservoir due to downhill parking. Radiator always full as I top off res. Seems to be possibly the valve where...

I got home today and saw I was leaking some fluid on the ground. It seems to be coolant and from what i could see, it was coming from the lower radiator hose at the block. I'm guessing something popped. I was driving it pretty hard before I got home, playing Mustang I guess. :oops: Any ideas...
