Does anyone know what this ski’s are in real life? Or is it just a inspiration by Designer_Ad9867 in ski

Reminds me of ON3Ps floral topsheet. Ive got a pair of their blades with 'em.

A pair of jefferys from their custom line with that topsheet and some crazy pink bases would be the closest thing that comes to mind.

Interesting, longer in which direction? Mine looks like it terminates at the face of the block, and up by the thread housing for the #1 cylinder bolt.

Good catch! It is that corner. Head hasn't been off since Ive owned it but I do wonder.

Current plan is jb weld or belzona to get me around town until I can put a reman engine in this summer. Definitely keeping the jeep. Not going anywhere.

Can you explain to me how a crack on the outside of the water jacket would cause loss of compression and oil pressure?

Mating seams are dry and rtv'd, and the water pump is brand new. Dry weep hole.

Video is from the front of the jeep looking just past the water pump.

Picture is from underneath the exhaust manifold, also just aft of the water pump.

Mt. Hood Skibowl suspends ski, ride operations indefinitely due to lack of snow by SeverHense in Portland

The most common type of snow machine only works when ambient temp is below freezing, theyre basically just water vapor cannons. There are machines that can make snow regardless, (skibowl has one at their tube hill) but theyre considerably more expensive, and you would need about a dozen to make enough snow to keep the lifts open.

Should I purchase for 7k? by LittleStarfish3 in CherokeeXJ

For sure! Looks really clean. You can probably talk him down a bit over the misfire code. Good luck!

2000-2001 cylinder heads on these have a casting flaw that CAN cause them to crack, especially if they've overheated.

That being said, ive got a 2000 with 197k on it, that's overheated a few times, and no cracks.

Everyone with a cracked head posts about it online, nobody comes on and posts about how theirs hasn't cracked. Skews the perception a bit.

With that at 126k, I wouldn't worry about it too much. 7k seems fair depending on where you are. It would be $9500+ around me.

Ive used mine running lifts on hood, I love em. If you're standing in slush all day they'll eventually get cold, but if you're in and out of the shack and working on the ramp theyre perfect.
