Tranny flush. New air filter. I'm still working on a no-weld roof rack for my Xterra. Hopefully soon (in time for evacuation should a hurricane come this way again).

thank you for the tire info,
installed fram tough guard air filter, im having clearance issues between the air box and radiator cap, need to figure that out as it is making it very difficult to close the air box all the way...

Spent all of Saturday and a little of Sunday putting the cylinder head back on the Jeep. First I've ever done and everything came together perfect. Wife is happily driving it again and looking forward to getting it back on the trails.

threw in $10 bucks of gas to get to work expecting to get paid, but he didnt have the cash, so tomorrow after i work another 8 hours and make another 72 bucks for the jeep. whiiiiich means i should be buying my first General Grabber AT 2 very soon. and installing u-joints right after the 6th of july. i also hauled an industrial steam cleaner to get repaired for the new boss...jeep didnt like that, it only weighed like maybe 50-60lbs (or so it seemed) but when ever i add weight to the cargo area the jeep just has nooooo balls. it feels like im driving up a steep grade in a higher than necessary gear....gotta figure that out.

Ordered today:
-CSF 3 row all metal radiator
-FlowKooler Water Pump
-195 Degree Thermostat
-Royal purp coolant additive

I read somewhere that it's good when you switch out radiators to also switch out the heater valve.. simply because it controls flow in the system... can anyone offer opinion?

i have a question if you happen to remember, or if anyone knows the answer really, on the 4.0l head, does anyone know the layout of the valves? i need to know if looking at the motor from the spark plugs side so passenger side, if the exhaust valve would be on the left or right of each cylinder...thinking about indexing my sparkplugs to see if it makes any difference.

ordered the A/C hose assembly today and it should be charged by sunday!
