Swapped out radiator and coolant setup from closed system to open. Going to put on a new passenger mirror and new gauges when the sun comes out. Also going to put in the thermostat since I somehow forgot to reinstall it when I fixed the leaking gasket.

Not my dads old truck! We took it off road and had it on 3 wheels, stuck in mud up to the top of the 37" tires in 2wd with a 20ft trailer (auto hubs went out) and a few more things.

Picked up a near new metal tank radiator for $100 (that's really cheap here) now just gotta get some radiator flush to clean the eggs out of my engine. Started removing the front diff, complete from steering to control arms from the donor XJ. Once the swap is done, gonna hit a powerline track in the hills east of Perth, lots of mud, lots of rocks and lots of fun wooooo hoooo

Changing back to smaller tires... Gas is getting too expensive to drive around with bigger tires.
