I like the stock look but want more flow. Do you have a link to the poison spyder grille? I did not see one on there sight. Interesting but when wheeling, it runs cool. Even Rock crawling it stays cool. It’s at freeway speeds that I have a problem. It’s better now but I like under 200f

This grille pops up on a few of my death scroll reels. It’s out of stock and I realize it’s probably not well made. But I like the enhanced air flow possibility. I am very against the “angry eye” look (no offense to anyone who has one installed). Any other options that might be close to stock...

I haven’t built a cage since 2015ish. I’ll look into a Genright. Way easier.

How custom of a cage is required? I have a stock rear and a prefab front but really want a better setup. I promised my wife when I bought it that it was “already to go”. Lol.

No question about the looks. I’ve got half doors and a soft top. I’m seriously considering the conversion therapy. Keep the pics coming.

Pulled the trigger on 5 Mickey Thompson Baja boss MT’s. Really like em. Much more sticky than the Patagonias. Did a cougar buttes trail here in so cal. Bullfrog, start of trail is chicken rock. The mickeys stuck like glue.

Like the chop!

I’m stuck on this right now. The po or original owner put on some ($$) raceline beadlocks. Then put on 1.5” spacers 😖. The reason for the extra offset (best I cal tell) is for steering clearance. Imagine a set of high end raceline wheels mounted on teraflex 60’s with spacers. I use it hard...

Before you get too far into the install, do some research on “tube and fin” vs “stacked plate” coolers. The benefit of the newer style is worth the cost. I took off a 12”x12” tube and fin cooler and put two 3”x10” (iirc) stacked plate coolers and solved a big problem. First, the large surface...

Here is a thread I did for my trans cooler. My Jeep has a built 545rfe trans married to a little hemi stuffed into a small engine compartment. These two trans coolers that I mounted in front of the radiator netted a great result. I have not seen anything above 190f since I put a dedicated temp...

Trust your mishimoto to do the work. Bypass the condenser. when you got the hot fluid warning, where in in four hi and climbing?

When I am in Hi, I see alot of vehicles with tires/wheels sticking way out from the fenders. Are inspectors actively flagging that issue where you are? If it is a known problem, you could put some temporary extender/liners on that you make yourself for the yearly inspection.

I had the same problem and found it was the dome light shaking. pull it out and test the vibration. I ended up making my own dome light out of kydex and double stick taped it to the sound bar. That 100% fixed it...

My ecm is bypassed. I’m not too sure there was any good ecm communication. The fans ran full speed all the time when the key was on when I bought it. I wired in a derale variable pwm system. It is mediocre at best. I do think a single fan or a pair of twin fans pulling more air would be helpful...
