LOL. Yeah we did. I'm not doing that again unless I have some guards or protection. I still can't believe all the silt and rock and crap that came outta there. Good times tho!

If the problem persists, you may want to replace the coolant temperature sensor, located near the thermostat housing. I had a similar issue, and replacing the $6 part solved the problem.

Thanks for the info.

I'm gonna go out in a little bit to see if it overheats at all today. Even slightly. We'll see what happens...

No I don't at this time my jeep is currently getting full body armor. So its at the paint shop. We just did a fan up front. Pretty simple really

I'm just hoping that's all it was. We'll see in the next few days if it's good to go for good. Thanks for the help from those who gave me hints.

The real test is 4 low for a trail good luck
