ET 19: Fixing the Jeep's Cooling System

This is in stereo (mostly) for your enjoyment.

• My dad and stepmother are going camping in the middle nowhere
• Jeep upgrades
  • 13.3 inch front brakes
    • Cheap upgrade versus buying a new caliper with bigger brakes without buying a entire new system
    • Broke one set of caliper sliding pins
    • Old brakes had 11.8 inch brake rotors
• I don't know if driving the 1 ton truck with a camper is worth three days of camping
• Driving to Lafayette where I bought the Wrangler X (coming up in episode 20)
• 2012 Wranglers have cheaper junkyard parts than my 2008
• Got two gaskets for the thermostat housing (I only needed one)
• The top radiator hose blew off one day
• Cleaning a bucket so the coolant I need to dump from the radiator can be reused
• Dumping coolant
• Taking the thermostat housing off
• Discussing coolant types
• Wobble sockets are helpful if you know how to use them.  I don't
• Bringing some extra coolant and tools with me for the drive
• ...and much more along with vintage radio ads
