I think it's the alt. Sounds like how both of mine did before failing and I see marks of a burnt diode. Can't get the screen shot to upload, but look at the burn mark on the bottom. Exactly where my last one burned.
What did you do to your jeep today?

you talking about the dark stain on the front of the housing, at about the 4 o'clock position?
Doesn't everyone love some good old 80085...:gr_grin:
I prefer mine young and perky.
I guess a bright spot... found the water pump receipt online, and it has a limited lifetime warranty. Guess next week I'll drain coolant, pull the pump, go over, drop it on the counter and say "gimme a new one!"

Gonna say. At 66k mine was rattling and then the shaft bearing let go. Dropped most of the coolant and make a huge mess. All within the same trip. At least you have time to prepare.
The idler also went the same way last year.

I got stuck in a big hard snow drift that was across my driveway this morning... A bit of shoveling, low gear, and a push from a neighbor got me on my way. More speed next time...

Trimmed my fascia some more. Added water pump, viscous heater, and inner timing belt cover. Kinda installed new timing belt, idlers, and tensioner. Need to make some cam alignment pins next.
Clocked my oil cap so it sits flat when tight instead of pouring the last drop out. Important stuff!

I have over 112K miles and haven't touched the tensioner on my 2006. My nephew has a KK and his tensioner has been replaced twice now
I replace mine every 75,000 or less, good or bad, throw the old one under the seats
Just replaced the one on the 05 15 minutes ago
new belt with old one under the seat as well
Twice now I have helped a stranded KJ when theirs went bad on the road
Both times on turnpikes , West Virginia and Pa
They were really happy not to have to call a tow truck

Loading it up with winter camping supplies.
Just got a call from my brother asking if I could sub for one of his assistants that can't make it for his Boy Scout troops winter camp weekend.
Tonight we'll be in the lodge, will should be fine, but tomorrow is planned to sleep in snow shelters we will build.
It's be fun, if maybe a little nippy.
Hope I don't find a hole in my sleeping mat!

Paid for the rear bumper/tire carrier/twin fuel can holder. Now just waiting on it.:winner_third_h4h:
That brings back some great memories.
Did a tune up and oil change for a former KJ owner on his JK.
He had told me he would part with his 4.10 front diff that he bought for his KJ in exchange for my labor etc .
Suddenly today he thinks its worth 750 bucks LOL
Said he would sell it to me for the work I did on his JK and 725 bucks :happy175
he supplied all the parts )
Told him to haul it back home and he was upset ! :emotions34::emotions34:

I washed all the salt off the heep today. Oil change tomorrow. I bought a set of ramps finally. My XJ was high enough (all stock) for me to slide under pretty easily, but the KJ is a bit tighter...

Ran it through the LaserWash to get the road salt and grime off. I had my dog with me and he thought it was quite interesting... Arooooooo!!!! :gr_grin:
I still do that when I go through the car wash too. :gr_grin:
Almost buried mine in the yard again today but didn't sink as far this time.
