hey guys....question....anyone have one of these??i need one with a bigger opening because the loop for the hook on the end of the rope has like a metal channel on it to protect the loop i guess and its too big..if not then i`ll figure something out....maybe just use some pliers and or a hammer to flatten it out...heres what it looks like(this is acutally a little thicker rope than mine, but you get the idea)

Yeah the radiator you put in couldn't cool my lawn mower
. The thing was leaky and overheated in the that 3 foot blizzard we had 2 years ago. I replaced the thing last year in March with a bigger one from LMC. Brand new radiator for $200, you get what you pay for... 
This is a picture of after I installed it last March:
The new radiator has been slowly leaking for the past month and now has been spraying and not holding pressure form the cooling system. So I called LMC and they agreed to send me a band new one for free and I was hoping to get it on Friday but I will have to wait till Monday.
So to fix the the leaky LMC special that is in there now I will have to rig something up
. I think that I will try a slop of RTV, if not then I will go so far as to spackle the leak 
On the bright side I successfully installed my extended front brake lines on Saturday so I don't have to be afraid of flexing too much and snapping a brake line
.

My friend might come later with his Jeep and do some wheelin with us.
Trip Follow up
Well I had a lot of fun! We sould do it again sometime.
After my friend Jesse got home he noticed that he actually had a hole in the oil pan. It looked like something blew out from the inside out. That would explain all the knocking his engine was doing. I think that he might have thrown a bolt from his rotating assembly. What ever caused it no good can come from it .

Well as it seems, my Jeep friend got a giant hole in his engine block in addition to the one in his oil pan. Thats for starting a waterlocked engine without taking out the spark plugs...
When I hydrolocked my engine in the past nothing like that has occured. All hail the 305

I couldn't go so I wanna see the videos (and maybe some pics, too?) and know what I missed.
You guys are going to be rolling on the floor listening to the Jeep with a nasty knocking engine. 
DirtyJim: hurry up with the video, I wanna see it.

well i`ll have to admit, i had fun. but i knew something would happen, on my way home i got lost like 3 times ...and i got to listen to my tranny grind the whole way back(makes the noise when ur on gas and goes away as soon as you let off, and does it when ur slowing down) then i got to listen to my mother(didnt want me to go in the 1st place)....so it now looks as if i wont be able to wheel anymore(ya because of my mom) because she gets so "worried" ...but i dont want to completely stop wheeln, so if you guys are planning a trip let me know because i want to ride shot gun or be the photo guy because its fu**in fun no matter what....well, at least i got to go once ...my plans now with my truck are to throw a plow on her and make some dough in the winter..i still have fun driving the truck no matter what...especially in the winter....so dont hate me for this guys ( cuz i cant stand when my mom is like that) i will also be putting my winch and bumper up for sale if anyones interested, the bumpers kinda hacked and the winch is a warn12k with like 90` of synthetic line and rockstomper hawse, the reason why its 90` is because when it got pulled out the line protecter got stuck and somehow tore the line and when the truck pulled forward it snapped...i will sell seperate if need be
Really? Sell your bumper and winch? I thought is looked really cool on the front of your rig.
