Just curious if anybody knows of a place that sells winter fronts/grille covers for Cherokee's and Comanche's?
Even running a new OEM thermostat, electric fans (not running), 50/50 coolant mix and a 3 core all metal CSF radiator, the XJ really runs cool above 35mph or so here when it has been in the negative teens here lately.
This ultra cold weather is actually a first as it hasn't been this cold in years....something like 13 or more years....regardless I was wishing that I had a winter front to keep the motor a bit warmer, as well as myself. Actually I wasn't too worried about the motor running too cold but the heat in the XJ was only moderately hot with the motor running cool like it is.
I guess my cooling system is too efficient for -20 (it was seriously that cold out without windchill)
I know there are plenty of manufacturers and dealerships that make/sell winter fronts for HD trucks and such, but I was wondering if there was a company or a place where I could buy a winter front specifically made for a Cherokee or Comanche.
If not I will probably just make my own and keep it around for those really cold days.
I won't use cardboard so don't suggest that
Thanks.
