In addition to not freezing anti-freeze keeps water from boiling until like 275 degrees!
So I would make a 50/50 mix. Next you need to check your fan clutch. Then you need to check your water pump.

96xj said it perfectly. Water alone is a good temp fix if your out on the road without coolant but itll evap fast and not cool well especially in this heat. Anti-freeze(coolant) ftw. Drain all the water refill accordingly and run her for a bit. If she still overheateing above 210-215 then go further into it

That's the plan, 50/50 distilled and coolant when I'm done flushing the system. So no more screwing around with the thermostat, whew. Thanks guys, you've saved my day.

No problem. That's what were here for. We're all in this together @ CF! Keep us posted.

Sorry, I'm confused. When people suggest tearing out the carpet to find, repair and prevent rust, is the carpet returned? Or is the carpet tossed and the interior sealed like a truck bed?

If the carpet is recommended to be returned, why? If the interior is to be sealed like a truck bed, is por 15 all I need?

Thanks.

You can either replace it, bedline it, that's up to you. A lot of ppl bedline to prevent rust and such when they go trailing and it's easier to clean if it gets muddy

Does anybody know how to adjust the linkage to the transfer case. Mine is off a bit and needs adjusting. Rather do it myself if I could.

sycoglitch

use the search button on my sig. Theres write up. You have to get under rig and manually adjust it at the TC

The lights on the dash don't match when I put in 4hi or part time or 4lo. Is the linkage off??

sycoglitch

the lightbulb could be out or the wire could be loose on top the TC. If you feel theTC engaging i wouldnt worry to much bout it if you want it you might have to replace bulb

Bohnett

The lights coming on. But the linkage doesn't feel like it's getting into gear. The light doesn't match with what gear it's in.

So I need a new drag link end. But the problem is I cant find anything. I searched for a tie rod end and nothing is similar. So my question is what do I search? Thanks. Also it's the right side one needs replaced that attaches straight to the knuckle.

sycoglitch

try this. It might be the golden rule of no no but next time you shift take a couple of semi tight turns if she hops or you hear the 4wd you ok. But if you turnin in 4wd and you aint hopping yea the linkage is off.

Ok so I've heard that JK rear UCA can be used as LCA for my XJ so my question is would it work on mine with a 3.5 inch lift and would it be a bolt on job or would some modifications have to be made
