Preparing for long trips.

Aftermarket radiators for the XJ are hit and miss. I've found the OEM Mopar HD MaxCool to be the best. I recently made the drive to Williams and had zero issues with keeping it cool. The gauge never even hit 210.

52080104AC Is the part number. It's a bit spendy, but cheaper than popping a head gasket.

Also, 33's on stock gears is likely a big factor. In my experience the water pump is most efficient around 2200RPM, which you're likely under at highway speeds of 65 with 33's.

Small update...transmission cooler and all new zj steering is going on the xj this Monday pretty excited. Going to be heading back up north July 4th...we shall see how it performs will be taking a different route that has less hill climbs though. Also talking about re gearing stuck on which gears to switch to. I have heard 4.10 4.56 but also 4.88 so I am doing more research...
