There was 3 questions there. Your first sentance could be a question.
Yes you can just bypass it until you are ready for the tedious task of removing the dash to replace it.
You do not need to do it in a rush manner at all. Do it when you're ready.

What would happen if I just left it as is and run the engine with the core being clogged.

Ok guys, my track bar is popping/clicking when I turn the wheel to the right. I thought I just needed to tighten it, but its tight as hell and it still does it.
For some reason the whole jeep moves up by about an inch as i turn the wheel left, and it lowers back down as I turn the wheel right..... any ideas?
It's an aftermarket track bar and it's only a year old.

Logan, any idea how the 97'+ xj's rain gutter trim is removed? A tree smashed mine down, I hammered it back up to get the door open. It looks to either be glued on or perhaps it slides on from the front or back.

So jeep overheated once today to 240 Coolant started overflowing from the overflow tank. Stopped it for a bit till temps cooled down. Now I have a winch bumper with no winch but for the trip we places a cooler in the spot where the winch was. I suspected it was blocking the radiator which caused the jeep to over heat. I removed I and it did not overheat again....was wondering if blocking the grill area would cause it to overheat...also should I worry about any permanent damage to my 98

Remove the hoses, get a spray nozzle on the garden hose, or use pressurized air and flush it both ways. Once you get good flow you can fill up up with CLR, let it sit for about 15 minutes then flush it again both ways until you get all the chemical out. Be careful though because the heater core can only handle so much pressure before it causes a leak. There are videos you look up on YouTube to show you how to do it.
