Bear's 95 jimmy

Well I decided I might as well just get a new radiator, I got my old one out with no problems other than one transmission line.
I also got a new lower fan shroud because my old one was broke and in the winter the fan would hit it and make a really annoying noise, as I was putting my new one in I managed to break the radiator baffle... Now I have to wait untill friday to get the new one.
As I wait for the part I am going to be fixing all the rust spots, I will have pics up tomorrow.

I really like the tread pattern on those tires.

So I got my new radiator in today.
Looks much better then the old one, I hope this one lasts as long as the other one.
And here is everything back together, I took it for a quick drive and noticed the top transmission cooler line was leaking so I made sure it was tight and I hope nothing else leaks.

I went to a scrap yard today and got this bush guard, I know they don't make one for 95's so I will try to make some mounts for this one to fit. I just don't know what to do with the mounts that go in the grille. For $75 its not that bad.
I just put my old lights on it for fun but If I get it on I might paint it black to match my jimmy, not sure yet.

Thanks, your blazer looks very nice also.
Well today I started my jimmy and I heard a loud noise from under the hood, so I got the hood up and I used a stethoscope to listen around and it sounds like the noise is coming from the ac compressor... It makes a very loud grinding noise and a squeal, I though it was the water pump at first but it sounds like its coming from the compressor so I guess I will have to replace that. Or remove it an get a smaller belt if that's possible on a jimmy because my a/c has never worked anyways.

Today I worked on my brush guard a bit and sprayed some bed liner on the lower sides of the truck and the fenders.
Here is a close up on the fenders, It covers up the scratches and there I sanded down the rust so i'm happy with it.
I hope I will get the brush guard on by this week all I have to do now is make the mounts.
