Currently sitting on the side of rt78, jeep is boiling coolant out of the overflow. Nice! Any ideas what's wrong with it
just ordered spindle bearings and seals, spindle nuts and lube lockers for the 60's just gotta take a trip to crown next fri for some yokes, whats everyone up to next fri?
Went blowing past you not realizing that was you till I passed you.. sorry I didnt stop man!
Finally made it home. Big thanks to Sam, Ken, and everyone else who helped me get the Jeep back on the road and make it safely home.
Sam hasn't quite made it home yet :shhh:
this happened to me, except my upper rad hose literally blew up as a result. I replaced the thermostat and my mechanical fan clutch, filled it back up, and it hasn't given me a problem since then. I do carry a spare thermostat, thermostat gasket, WP, WP gasket, and both rad hoses now though :roflmao:I would have stopped if i knew it was overheating, the gauge read slightly above 210, then all of a sudden shot up to like 260, i immediately pulled over, let it cool down, drove another five miles, pulled over, no boiling, did that twice more.
Heres the awesome part, as i was driving down 78, the hood latch relased and flew up, cracked the cowl nicely, and put some new sweet dents on my hood, then looked down and saw my radiator cap was gone, got pissed smahed the jeep with a ball pin hammer.
150 dollars later i was home with my jeep on a tow truck.
Heres a video.

No problem dude, glad you made it. So did I (finally.) What happened to Sam? Does he need parts? I have anything he needs off an 88, 91, 94, 96, or 99 in my back yard if he needs emergency parts/tools drop-off somewhere...Finally made it home. Big thanks to Sam, Ken, and everyone else who helped me get the Jeep back on the road and make it safely home.

Oh, and I have a pic for Mark as soon as I recharge my phone a bit.
