Novak Conversions Jeep Wrangler TJ radiator

What did you do to your TJ today?

Well, I don't pray, I don't vote, I don't smoke anything. I just wanted a place to live that I could be myself, and I think my wife thinks the same way. Arizona seemed to fit our way of thinking the best. We found, or I should say I found, because she asked me to look, South East Arizona. 10 to 12 degrees cooler than Phoenix or Tucson during the summer, and about 285 days of sunshine.
Any place in Arizona that stops you from the melting heat seems like a good spot lol

bought on amazon, similar to dynamat ones - but way cheaper. Coming from Land Rover experience back in the years.

they are sticker anti-hot panels that I put on the hot zones of the transmission/pavement of the jeep. it's cold now here, but you cannot anymore feel the heating coming up from there, so I think it will work for hot rock crawling this summer!

here the link just to show you

What are these panels you speak of?

That's adorable! I want to see the build thread for that.

But have you tried their hot dogs?

Good lord... it's 7:30 AM and those dogs still look delish...

Alright whats in 'em?

Could they actually dethrone the ultimate, the chicagah dog?
Dethrone? I always thought Nathan's hot dogs were the pinnacle.

SkyLine dogs were a close second... Only place I had them was in Cinn, OH.

It is usually $2500 to $3000 for a shop to do it.
I paid $2600 front & rear.. with TrueTracs.. and that's in NY!


As far as the TJ...

Yesterday I replaced the clutch master and slave for the third time in two months. Replaced the CSS. Flushed the break-in fluid in the month-old AX-15, adjusted the transfer case shift cable and discovered I need a new RF brake caliper, serpentine belt and tensioner. Just Empty Every Pocket

Suggestions for front calipers, brake lines and the belt/tensioner kits?
 
Woke up and my wife said, "So much for the snow." Thirty seconds later this started.

Cincinnati chili is disgusting. Fucking cinnamon...
1,000% agreed. I have to got to that city several times a year since my company is headquartered there. Their "chili" is spaghetti with cinnamon.

Not a chili fan. Hard fast prohibition on beans.
Texas style is what you need. This is how I make mine and on the smoker as well.

Texas style? Spicier tomato sauce soup?
Texas style chili is where it is at.
