    Yeah I'd say that isn't legal lol. It's not real easy to see nor can you see the state and expiration.

    no, basically it's helps recognize and remember the ultimate sacrifices many law enforcement officers have made and the risks officers face on a daily basis

    Got a questions for you real mechanics. @lotsoftoys @thefatkid

    Recently my fan clutch hasn't been disengaging as easily/as much. Especially when wheeling. This weekend a lot of my time in 1st gear 4L was spent with the fan howling. It engaged when stopped nearly every time and wouldn't hardly ever stop in 1st. Seemed to only disengage after some time at 3K RPM or above in 2nd. Also notice it starts howling fairly often sitting at a light and takes a bit to disengage after that. Seems like this started a couple months ago, before that only really remember hearing the fan howl for 30 seconds or a minute at startup.

    So, does that sound like a fan clutch issue, or possibly a cooling system issue causing the fan to be on more? According the ultragauge, coolant temperature almost never goes above 200. Usually at 194ish crusing and was around 198 or so this weekend when wheeling.

    You could inspect radiator temperature with a temp gun. If it is heat saturated it could cause the fan clutch to stay on longer. the most likely cause is your fan clutch just wearing out. Is it leaking oil at all. It would just be a slight residue because they don't contain much oil.

    No signs of oil that I can see. Still has good resistance turning it when cold. About to hit a quarter-million miles, would be surprised if that wasn't the factory fan clutch.

    Just ran red cone with my dad...first off road adventure, he dug it but was,also pretty nervous.

    Almost didn't make it up, a deep ruthless has formed and needed really careful tire placement. Tore a mud flap off the rear & beat the shit out of my skids....next investment is some better skids!
