Went for a ride in my wife's lj last night....its much warmer. I suspect that I put in a bigger core, more transfer capacity and same water flow. Net result...less heat output. On Fan setting 3, its plenty warm for me. If I had sub zero temps...maybe not. The core is super solid...

Finally got it done yesterday - it may need to burn in a bit and/or I have a little air in the system (burping recommendations invited). It gets warm enough for me, but others may think its not warm enough. I don't think this is the final answer...it is nice that the coolant smell is gone...

it fits in the hvac box with no issues

Got it in the mail yesterday....may have time to install this weekend. I have the Jeep disassembled already...wow...thats a fun task

Good writeup - thanks!

will do

just ordered the thick one....i'll be the tester i guess

Hi - curious if you came to a decision on the brassworks core...I have my Jeep part way disassembled and have a cheap aluminum core that I am trying to decide on installing or pay much more $$ for the brassworks core. Goal is to never to this repair again...

This one is coming up for sale - rust free, 140K miles, completely stock, new rear brakes (rotors & pads), needs valve cover gasket/maybe main - light oil leaks

This video explains the problems and how they can be fixed when rebuilding - made sense to me, high-impact resells the high gear transmissions for a bit less...

I also did the B&M Shifter and wonder if it would fix a reverse pop...Its much tighter. My wife's LJ pops out of 3rd and I may try it...they are just spendy for a shifter

pls add to list for 2 sets

Build log for the boy's 2006 LJ - we found a clean one for a realistic price. Not sure of it will get modified or not, 2006 Manual with 120k miles - drives nicely. We now have 3 Rust Free LJ in the fleet...is this collecting or hoarding?

The PO cut some huge holes in the rear where the tail lights go...only solution the wife liked was the Savvy lights...they are spendy and take some wiring work to complete. They do cover the holes well and she likes the brightness.

Got the Gr8Top installed, the silver flares, white wheels, small lift, shocks. Before and after pics for fun
