Great. 2nd best thing I've ever felt :beer:
 
I ended up refabbing my cold air intake. The old one with rubber kept collapsing, so I used solid 3 inch ABS. Hope it holds up. Seems solid so far. At least it moves my filter to a cooler area. This project involved a few beers, so I'll drive it tomorrow to see if it works.

Glad to see that your WJ is back on the road. Nothings better than fabbing and drinking haha.

Nice! Long sweep 90s for better flow, looks good Doug. Glad it’s running again and that chapter in your book is closed

All is good. Just did a 500 mile oil change on the motor the other day just because. So far so good. Now that the trails are getting a little snowy, I've been sticking around town pretty much. So far, no trail damage at Home Depot. The rear brakes did give out on an obstacle at Chic-Fil-A the other day though, Just worn out rear pads.

Thanks for checking in.

I've heard some of the lines on the obstacles at Chic-Fil-A can be deceiving...

Looks like it will work, but the engine may sound like a toilet flushing.

It has to be fun to make mods instead of trying to solve that dam over heating problem.
