is there something obstructing it from making a tight seal?
it could be coming from just around the fitting and not the fitting itself

no i thoroughly cleaned it before putting it back together and the fluid leaks right out the fitting and drips down the tranny line since it comes out at a downward angle to clear the oil pan. I'd like to do something more permanent than jb weld since I'm gonna drop the cross-member so i can easily get to it but it is my dd'er and cant be down longer than today

check radiator, t-stat, coolant level and rad cap
fan not kicking on sounds like a wiring issue
what do you mean runs hot? how hot?

chop saw?
there are 3 bolts (4 if you have tow hooks or just the mounts for them)
that you can see if you remove the end caps or pull on the plastic fender lining a little, I only did this once and I only really helped was kind of a PIA

Hey guys got a question. My jeep is grinding in the back. I've been playing in water recently, after that I started hearing grinding in the back. So I had my outer bearings and seals replaced. I still hear grinding. What do you guys think it is?
