Thoughts on removing the aircon rad whilst I am changing things?

[JamesH]

It depends if you want to do it legally or redneck

[jay140285]

Redneck lol, I can bring a refrigerant removal thingy back from work. Reclaim unit that's the thing

the gas in mine had already removed it's self "magic" 
Putting an alternator in place of the pump

Yep just 3 young people enjoying the mud that all happened to have unrelated issues shortly after

That's exactly what I've been telling people! They don't believe me that the two idler pulleys and radiator are wear and tear items!

Well I don't care, I had a bloody good day playing in the mud
and if it ended up costing me nearly £1,000 that's the price I have paid for having fun 

I have to say, in my defence, I was lead astray by the Hoban bloke and his very young side kick Bryn boy
but the offer was there, and what was a girl supposed to do, be rude not to 

note to self, stick to knitting and kittens from now on 

[jay140285]

Errrr if you wanted to take up my offer of playing dirty it's not my fault.

What has Nat told you? Following me in the jeep or on a horse will get you into trouble!

Don't assign any blame to me! It was entirely Jay...

You guys are going to have to look at Willo's rig to design your own " rad in the rear" system.
Problem solved......

[JamesH]

Or lift the Jeep more so the rad is out of the goo 

[wildwood]

Only ever had a prob with the YJ when I was nose down in the goop at Tong....... Still a road Jeep on 35s.......had to throw buckets of water at it at a service station on the A1 to clear the rad.

Height is King........

And just when I get there the fashion changes to LCG (low centre of gravity)......

Mind you fashion......what's that??? I'm still dressing like Rory Gallagher circa 1972  happy days.

[jay140285]

Hummmm think I may have solved this one! Radiator after 20mins with pressure washer was still running muddy water but I can now see through all the fins!

Also the air filter was thick in mud so very little air getting through.

Removed the aircon rad whilst at it.

What are the thoughts of radiator bibs when off roading in mud?
