California NorCal Jeep adventures!

I hope you’re ok. If not a speedy recovery.
I couldn’t find a mopar, so I went with a denso. It’s the same style radiator, and denso, although not as popular for domestic vehicles, has never let me down on quality for over 25 years in the business.

Denso is OEM manufacturer for a lot of Toyota parts so they have to have some semblance of quality

Lately, even domestic manufacturers are using them. All the GM products in my fleet have Denso starters and alternators from the factory. The Duramax diesels have Denso engine electronic parts. Being built by Isuzu, that’s a given though. It had already begun when I began my career, but I saw everything shifting to a global melting pot. It’s just like our #1 military aircraft, built in 20+ countries, there is no foreign or domestic anymore. 😞

Oops, Saturday the 23rd. Hard to say on the snow fall. Goat Mt. is over 6000 feet, so if it snows, there will definitely be snow up there.

The frame checked out? Bummer about the grill. You may have some luck on ebay getting one that's already the right color.

Frame checks out, I have an appointment tomorrow at a shop for estimate. I already found a grill in sac that I am going to get on sunday. Then next week i hope to order a new pair of headlights and water pump. Then look for a radiator and then get it together so I dont miss a snow day! The other 2 cars didnt fair too well
