The rockers have held up really well. I have had no clear coat degradation even where I’ve mashed them on the rocks. The flares started to show signs of clear coat fatigue this summer. Mostly in places where they have scraped against obstacles and cracked the finish. I chalk this up to them...

I have no dog in the fight here, but I have had a CSF radiator with the plastic tanks like OEM for four summers here with no issues. It gets 100°+ where I live. Can’t speak for longevity but I’m happy with my $80 radiator so far.

Man, that was two jeeps and seven years ago 😆 I’ll see if I can find my original order. I ended up sending them back an putting the stock bulbs in.

I built this last year and has worked great. Been really easy to use. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/diy-hardtop-dolly-for-100.79163/

This was my process for repainting my Rubi flares. I went with black vs. the “light” black they came with stock. They’ve held up fine thus far, even in areas where I’ve scraped on rocks. Post in thread '2005 Rubicon; A Rubi Brother'...

I have been told this about four different times, I can’t believe it has to be said lol. I’ve been to glacier before but never Yellowstone. Really looking forward to being able to disconnect.

I am a proponent of dad humor. It snowed a foot there today in the upper portions! It’s supposed be cloudy and in the 60°s all next week and 70°s on the weekend. Perfect time to get away.

I’m just using a cheap Amazon wifi OBD I got for $20. It shows me the basic things and also checks codes if I need. I use OBD Fusion for my app. I think I paid $10 for that. I would eventually like to do the DRB in a virtual machine but it seems one of the key components has become hard to...

I have seen it. I think it’s a burgundy Sahara IIRC. The swap was tastefully done but I can’t remember the details of the engine. I bought some takeoff parts from him a couple years ago. He has a sweet shop too with some other nice projects in there. Nice guy. I too love my AC lol.

Hey guys! Two-week update; cooling system is working flawlessly. I was watching OBD yesterday during a drive with AC on and temps ranged from 200-210°. It most consistently stayed between 203-206°. There are absolutely no leaks so I consider my Robert Shaw/Flowkooler/USMW stuff adequate OEM...

It took me a second 😆 Does it come in a soft top variety?

Just want to throw my .02¢ in here (a year later). I finally bit the bullet and refreshed my cooling system and put the USMW fan clutch in. There was nothing wrong with the original but for the sake of longevity wanted to shelve it as a spare. I don’t see any difference in volume or performance...

It could be worse! My AC in my place broke two weeks ago, it got up to 90° inside today 😀 Getting fixed tomorrow thankfully.

Maybe it’s the cynic in me, but I’m not 100% convinced these aren’t counterfeit. Typically the brand indicators are cast. I feel like anyone could take a random pump and laser etch a part number and logo on it. I also feel like that could open some serious criminal liability from the source...
