Some new cars have a eletric thermostat it's just a vavle the computer opens and closes
hello, I just wanna thank you for your video. It helped me out on my zj I put the Ford explorer 11 blade fan on and it keeps my jeep nice and cool to the temperature of 210 and a little bit less about 208. Yes definitely a much better upgrade thanks.
Hello, I was just watching your zj on your fan. Do you know the model number of the 11 fan from the Ford?
I do not know the model # but, did come from ford pickup truck.
@@mastertechmobilmechanicser3372 OK thank you. I figured it out which one I need to get. I’m gonna do the same thing to my ZJ.
I need some hood louvers. I really like driving my ZJ.
Push/Pull fans...great idea. I've done practically every mod I can think of and STILL have overheating issues. Frustrating to have to turn off the AC when it's a 100 degrees outside.
where'd you buy a new shroud?
@@berserkermaniac8697 went to junk yard. Had to modify top mounts.
you okay? its been a year since an upload
Also out here in Arizona (Desert Hills) and have the same vehicle but with the 4.0 and same thing out in the trails when going very slow gets too darn near 215 for me and everything is up to specs under the hood...... all other times everything is fine as it's bone stock I'm impressed how you did the push fan up front..... may have to copy it 🙂👍
Do you have the video on that bed that’s an awsome idea
Very cool... nice rig !
What’s the size of the fan and we’re did you get it
Awesome
Say Sasquatch switch five times fast! 😂
I live in Arizona as well and I’m having similar problems with my ZJ. Do you use a stock replacement clutch for the fan or is it upgraded to a heavy duty or severe duty clutch?
In my auto college I attended in 2011, My teacher that was a Porsche tech for 37 years from Germany that did air box locations temp readings recordings for Porsche claimed Snorkels increase fuel economy, gains was only 1.5% during the testing but does help! Grabbing Air from outside of the vehicle actually increases MPG
What coolant do you put in it? I have a 98 with a 5.2 and it overheats just driving up a mountain on a highway with AC on. Did a block leak check and didn't detect anything. Prior owner had the orange coolant in it, it should be the green stuff, right?
Nice rig! Ur gona love swapping to a 231, it's so much nicer on road and off road. Good luck with the build
Very cool and practical ,have fun
Where in Arizona are you? I am in Tucson and I have some cooling issues. The guy before who owned it before me put an electric fan on the engine side.
Hi. Thanks for the video planning on doing something similar. One question what did you do with the bracing that went up and down like a W in front of the radiator? Thanks.
Could you possibly leave the link to the parts
Sick af
why is the snorkel on backwards?
When following down a dusty trail you dont suck in all the dust and you can install a pre filter on snorkel.
Simple and cozy. Very nicely done.
Looks good. Stay safe.
Nice setup
Nice ride! I have a 96 ZJ Laredo that I'm getting ready to overland, will be doing the same upgrades to mine. Hope to see you on the road... come up to Oregon and we'll wheel in the mtns.
Love the setup Ray!
Thanks for the vid bro
Really nice brother
awesome video , first time i ever heard someone say " if its not working i turn it back to factory, if it worked for them it will work for me" best advice for new ZJ owners or anyone really. thank you.
where can i find the tire mount for the hitch?
Bought it on offer up used, but found this sticker on it. Tote-um systems inc. Camarillo ca.
Like how the bed slides out great idea!
Stealing the awning idea for sure
smart work. thanks.
Cool man! I’m digging it. Nice job 👊🏻
I'm wondering I'm 5'11, and regular truck bed should be 5'5, how to make the length good for foot room? Thank you.
My bed is 6.5 ft , I think most are 6.0 for short bed.
Looks like the view from Scottsdale!
I like it!
hello, do you have the diagram for the rear bumper, and front, thank you stephane from the south west of france
Great insights. I have the same Jeep and have struggled with overheating. I like your insight on the thermostat issue. I've been so frustrated with mine and all the mods I've done to alleviate the issue, that I finally installed a 160 degree thermostat. Maybe now I should go back to the 195 factory spec. Also liked the pusher fan AND the mechanical fan concept. Might have to try that as well.
People lack the skill of fabbing-You did an awesome job. Practical and simple. Thanks!
Excellent content, have a 96 ZJ laredo, and you hit one point i was curious about.....changing the transfer case to have 2 wheel drive capability , please make a video on that for reference purposes.......thanks
Freakin awesome man, thank you for the upload, TH-cam doesn't have enough ZJ videos.
I like the bed design , but ,,,, you don't seem to have access to anything under the bed once it's extended ? I think a slide out on the end would do the trick , and wouldn't be too hard to incorporate. Kept simple. The other side storage , while functional (I get it ) just appears unfinished with the end open . My OCD would be off the charts with that , lol .... Needs a curtain to cover it at least .....: ) Otherwise , simple and well done 👏 Cool ....
Didn't want to buy sliders for pull out. Good idea on curtain for end of storage. It was incomplete, but now I will add curtain. Thanks
looks like ur out in new river area?
Yes new river black canyon
The sliding bed is so awesome!
Thats how its done. Congrats;)
I like it! It looks like a fairly simple and straightforward build.
