The kiddo was ill this weekend so I was only able to work a little at a time.
I got the oil, air filter, and transfer case done late last week.
I checked all the hubs and front end parts. Everything was good to go. I am thank for that.
I got some new lights installed. GI Joe borrowed the...
Got the hard doors fitted and latching right.
I got some new headlights put in. It hasn’t had any for a while.
Fixed the stupid heat girls on the passenger header that rattles.
The wipers were inop so i disassembled the Motor and found the lower portion where the brushes and magnets were...
If the box goes bad and sends voltage for a long time it will fry them all.
You can check you them with a multimeter.

What box do you have?

I am not much help but I am sure it’s all addressed in the Tm.
I would go ahead and order the quick disconnect for your fan hydraulic hose so it will be easier next time. That stupid hydraulic line has generated quite a few curse words.

The panels on a hmmwv flex way to much to get a filler like bondo to to stay. It would break out or crack pretty quickly.
Yamabro is correct. The only permanently to repair is to use a filler patch and weld it up, then grind it flat.

The first thing would do is confirm the problem. There are specific troubleshooting steps for this in the TM’s. If you don’t feel like you can pull it off or don’t have the tools take it to a shop that works on diesel trucks. Don’t take it to one that works on 18 wheelers, find one that works on...
You can use the H1 motor but it doesn’t have the external switch to turn it in like the hmmwv. You have to hack it open and rig up a switch.

I forgot one easy thing. Make sure the valve that the leaver in the cab actuates is actually opening fully. If it’s not opening you aren’t getting full coolant flow to the heater core.

Have you cleaned out your heater core and flushed out your cooling system? Many people run in similar temps without issue.
Also put some roll insulation in the top and cut some pipe insulation longways and put it between your bed floor and your rear curtain. That will help with the draft...
Just swap the bulbs to 12volt bulbs. You will have to have a 12v fuel pump. You should be able to use an inline pump. Two other hurdles you will have to jump are the wiper motor and the blower motor for the heater. They will need to be converted to 12 models. There are options but that will have...
That has more to do with operator experience and proposed use.
If you are going to rip on it every time you get in it then I would upgrade to the 12k running gear.
I have done what some people say is impossible with a jeep over the years. I have taken a TJ with a Dana 30/35 and wheeled it...
