And the drivers rear wheel cylinder just gave out. Whoo no brakes at work. Clamped the soft line off with a vicegrip wrapped in electrical tape. Should be a fun ride home.

Edit: in other news, my brake pedal has never been this firm. It does tempt me to just cap off the rear brakes. But that's bad.

No garage, not wanting to pull the rear end apart in 20degree weather. Otherwise i'd agree with that plan
I stand by my theory that my jeep smells money and I'm starting to think it hates me.

HA hate, I feel like my jeep forces me to fix things before doing new mods cause she knows Ill put it off.

Example, Was gonna do a flush and fill of coolant Mid to end January and do an SYE first, yea right. She decided to have to temp guage go slightly past 210 which never happens so new clutch fan, thermostat flush and fill for her this week. Its not even worth planning anything anymore lol

Although i think he was responding to my post about the needle passing 210 but when you know
Your jeep you know when its doing something different. It nite normal for my jeep for how the needle was moving, hence why im taking action now.

Surprising the napa fan clutch works. Thing is smaller than stock thought but it turns on between 200-210 it seems cause that's when n needle starts going down faster lol. Between that and electric fan that is
