Jeeps and Winter

[TJMagoo]

So since I live in NE Ohio and winter is just around the corner, if not here already :x . A lot of us work and modify our jeeps now. So what does everyone plan on doing to their jeep this winter???

I'll go first :D I plan on line-x'ing my front and rear bumpers that are now stained from mud at Wellsville :* I think that is it for now but ya neva neva know! :g

My Jeep will be off the road till Dec first, I will be putting headers on her, Borla Cat-back stainless exhaust. Hopefully I will be putting the 2" suspesion lift on this winter. :) I will aslo be putting a better air intake on for more flow and horsepower :D I am also putting stainless steel hardware on. That includes windshield hinges and tailgate hinges, i already have the hood hinges and the rest of the hood hardware done.

The 2wd neon?? In winter :shock: Good luck man ;) j/k

wouldn't want the jeep to get salt on it, scrambler what kind of intake are you putting on?

[scrambler013]

1981CJ5 I am putting a Pacesetter Air F/X kit, or a K&N FIPK on from 4WD hardware. They list for the 4.0 6's but the way the YJ's are set up the kits should work on the 2.5.

Hopefully getting the belly up on by the end of winter. I have everything except for the AA shifter linkage, 1 set of lower arms and the HD DS (which will be measured for after the install).

Regarding your air intake, I would seriously consider the new AEM air intake system, it just came out, and is in your 4WD catalog under new items...Just a thought and it is priced very closely to the K&N and Pacesetter system.

What kind of jeep do you have...besides saying a Wrangler. Is it a YJ or a TJ and what year.

:D I guess up north because of the salt and sanding most of you store or work on your Jeeps?
Anyway a couple of quick tricks I did to my TJ and my YJ, I made my own air intake using a stock TJ air tube and attached a cone filter to the end works like a charm,you can use some flat stock sheet metal for a splash/ heat shield, and because the YJ and TJ injected models have the same TB diameter no special mods needed. :lol:
As far as storing my Jeep, they were made to wheel and in Texas wheelin's good ;) .

I just run mine every weekend between Vermont and CT. PLENTY of sand and salt. I just hose off the under side anytime it goes above 32*.

Mods come when the driveway mud dries out in the spring.
