JK or the new Jeep 4 door pickup. :) :) :)



No I really like my CJ7 if anything I want to buy my uncles MB and restore it

I really want the Tesla model 3 but I think that is going to have to wait

Got some more forward progress, finally figured out that the power steering pump swivels off that one bolt on the front of the pump..... ingenious but complicated as all get out, I’m going to probably grab some all thread for the water pump since I will need a 6.25 inch long bolt there at minimum

Sure has been a lot of in necessary fabrication to get to this point but here we are.... now on to moving the radiator up a half inch to clear my steering column/box coupler before it rubs a hole in my radiator

Hmm any bets on weather this stuff works on a CJ? Lol

Well at least it’s nice to have power steering for now

I figured you would dump a container of black pepper into the fluid to stop the leak. :)
 
The mythical black pepper trick! Have heard of that fix for before but always wondered if it actually worked.

I can’t imagine Gert would resort to a black pepper fix, he’s too good for that.

Black pepper does work for a temporary radiator fix.

Why is Gert running power steering fluid thru his radiator?? No wonder this is taking him so long....... LOL

Yeah, I’m thinkin that water pump ain’t gonna like peppered power steering fluid. Gert use to be a chef?????
