More trails in Moab.
Jeep did fine, until the 4th day when the front passenger main leaf decided to go flaccid. I flogged em pretty good for the last 4 years.
Time for a pair of new front springs.

- 84 CJ7 4 banger-owned since new in 1984 bought off truck at dealership - rebuilding 258, T176 with Sniper EFI D300 4:1 Lomax gears Twin Sticked 1 piece axels with locker
Now that looks like a pretty good time and the fact that it made it three days with no issues is awesome
Definitely more fun than what I’m doing with mine brake lines

- CJ7 Reman 258, Np435, twin stick 300 dana, Currie 44's both ends with DetroitTrac both ends and chrome moly 35 spline shafts, Maxis Razor 33;s Gps based speedo.
After much time and energy to fix my coolant leak and much static run time I thought it was cured. No, the green juice escaped once again. So, I parked it a few days. Now for some unknown reason no drips! Perhaps the threat of pulling the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l and replacing with a 302 ford V-8 had something to with this.

Coolant Leak......
1) You may have had a "Air Pocket" or "Air Bubble" in the system and it purged itself.
2) The system found it's level and it was coming out of the overflow tube into the frame somewhere. Now it has dried up.
3) Cold Leaks, can work both ways. After the engine cools down, it creates a Vacuum inside the system and stops the miniscule leak.
OR
after the engine cooled down, you Now Retighten Every Hose clamp as they have "Found Home" and are a little loose now.
Good Luck
