Took my radiator out finally...it had a crack in it and was leaking bad and when I flushed it with a water hose a ton*** of rust came out kinda scared me a little how bad can this be?

 

[Joshharris98xj]

Was it chunky rust or just rusty color water?

I drained it in to a bucket and I have a layer of rust along the bottom

 

[Joshharris98xj]

Removed my door mouldings and waxed her

Ohhh that paint!

 

[Joshharris98xj]

Installed the new crank and cam. Feels good to be working on it again.

How tough was it with the cam? I wanna put a nice cam In

Replaced my radiator finally going to flush it and crank her tomorrow, the jeep is my DD and it had been a week luckily my sisters license is suspended for 2 weeks so I have been driving her trail blazer

Considering I was working with a very bare block on a stand, quite easy! Pistons and timing chain should go on tonight.

Haha yeah I bet but thanks anyway and good luck with it all

pulled off the headlight housings and grille, painted the housings/bezels whatever you prefer to call them. the grille had a crack so i got some plastic weld and its currently clamped up, tomorrow i will paint it and then throw it all back on, then all thats left is to paint the bumpers. probably just wait till i have the cash to bedline them all

Herculiner at auto zone is the best 30 bucks I ever spent I say use that I did and it looks awesome I think it looks better that rhino I have experience with both I Hume 2 thumbs up for herculiner

 

[Joshharris98xj]

herc fades

monstaliner is what you are looking for, the owner is a jeep enthusiest and a proud vendor here on jeep forum.

Oh really I haven't had it happen yet but I will look in to thT how can I find him?

ive got dc-2's on my jeep, just picked up a moab wheel, and aggresive a/t as a spare tire. 150$ for both

I like that look and thumbs up on the skyjacker I have a 2.5" what about u?

 

[Joshharris98xj]

not a fan of rhino liner. ive heard nothing but bad things about it. never seen herculiner in person, or pics of it for that matter. i dont like the look of monstaliner. it is a very quality product but i just dont like the look. i plan on doing it under the carpet but the outside and interior panels i want to do need to be something i like. i used the rustoleum on a friends f150, the chrome on his bumpers and the quarter panel area. i like the way it looks. its very clean, and the texture in my mind is just perfect. idk how it is holding up for him, we did it a few months ago and since then we are out of school. but thats my first choice until i hear anything bad from him about it.

edit:
actually, id even think about doing monstaliner in the wheel wells and under the chassis completely, possibly engine bay as well. just cause im terrified of rust. its completely rust free and i want to keep it that way. but as before mentioned. the flares, grille, bezels, bumpers, end caps, and maybe even the mirrors and all the handles, they all are for aesthetics. the interior panels i want to do are a mixture of aesthetics and for function, they are the little kicker panels and anything that gets scratched up from your feet and basically the whole cargo area, all the plastic in there thats scratched up from cargo, they will be sanded smooth with a high grit sand paper and then bed lined.

I still think you should look in to it not to e a *** but I disagree

Bought another XJ (Briarwood) off craigslist, made it about 20 miles back home and this happened...

Man that is horrible what going to do?

 

[Joshharris98xj]

you're entitled to your opinion on the subject, you may have more experience in the area than i do, therefore i try to take any and all advice from fellow jeep owners into great consideration. unless you tell me to drop it on bags and throw 22's on it. then im just gonna slap ya

Hahaha true that man

 

[Joshharris98xj]
