Ha! The only pictures I got was off the trailer and back on the trailer. Over heated and blew a water hose apart on the back radiator. It was pretty awesome having steaming water blowing on the back of my head.

I went up “muffler delete hill”  that’s what I’m calling it, because that’s what happened

OUCH! Time for a rear firewall is what it sounds like.

Perfect!  I’ve had several people stop by to check it out, and watch the games ( braves now)

We seen you show up, then looked again and you was gone. Figured something must have happened.

 I did not take any pictures.   [spectator2]

Did the hose break or just come off the fitting? Did you get burnt?

Post some pics of your radiator setup. I know you have some weird dual radiator thing going on

I thought I seen your jeep, I thought to myself that jeep looks familiar, but I didn't put 2 and 2 together lol.

Didn't get burnt, just real warm lol. It slipped off a fitting. After the blow out the temp dropped back down to just under 200* and stayed there until I got back to the camp ground area and then all of a sudden it dropped to 160* and then shot back up to 230* and then back down 200*. The temp gauge was sitting under 200* and you could here the engine go into limp mode at which time I shut the engine down. The back radiator was warm and had pressure on it. The front radiator was hot on top but where it goes into the engine it was cold to the touch. So it makes me thing the t-stat is sticking closed. Could be another air bubble, IDK. I will (should have) change out the t-stat regardless. I'm still trying to decide on whether or not to keep the dual setup.

I'd go to a single Rad setup for sure!
