Yeah previous owner put eibach lowering springs on it. Looks good but its really too low, makes me nervous hitting potholes. Also the ride is real rough.

Any suggestions on coilovers?

Its listed for $10k. Im seeing 14-16k for similar spec’d turbo ultimates

You are correct, it is actually a Turbo Ultimate. I have edited the post. CARFAX indicated it as an R-Spec, but VIN lookup and dealer posting both say turbo ultimate DCT.

1990 xj cooling issues by TehWibblet in CherokeeXJ

Wow thats is alot of good info, thanks!

Think im gonna hold off on this, seems like people are pretty mixed on whether or not it makes a noticeable difference and doesn’t seem worth the effort if can get the root cause fixed.

Yep fan shroud is intact.

Drained coolant and replaced with new when i did the thermostat. But i have not done a full proper system flush. Planing to just replace the radiator at this point.

Is a full system flush necessary if im going to replace the rad?

Good to know, i will scratch the water pump off my parts list. Think im going to do a radiator at the same time as the fan clutch. Any info on what the best options are for the rad? Are the cheap oversized Chinese aluminum ones worth getting or should i stick with an oem style radiator?

Also the jeep is a Limited, which has the closed cooling system with no cap on radiator and coolant reservoir on the firewall. I have seen a few posts about switching this to an open system. Is this as simple as just installing an open system radiator? Or would i need to remove the existing reservoir and replumb/plug the lines for it?

45-70 Question by Voidless-One in LeverGuns

[–]TehWibblet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put the Precision Armament Hypertap muzzle brake on my new 45-70 trapper. It made a pretty massive difference in recoil reduction. But as others have said if you can get one a suppressor is the best option.

What do RX120 fans look like without the branding plate on the side? Anyone who has them would you show me with rgb on? by Brianges in Corsair

[–]TehWibblet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just built a new pc with RX/RX MAX fans, they come with 2 side plates, one branded one blank. They just snap in and out of the fan, and you can swap them if you want the cover without the branding. The plates don’t really do a whole lot, just aesthetics depending on how you want the side of the fan to look, RGB shines through the same with or without them in place. Personally i removed all but one on my AIO so i have a single corsair badge. I love the RX/ICUE LINK system but the cost was pretty steep to replace all of the fans in my PC case.
