2004 6.0 NV4500 Tahoe

So I’ve been needing tires for awhile and just really didn’t want to buy new ones because I’m a cheap phuck. A deal popped up on something I’ve wanted since I was probably 5 and part of the deal was to trade my black AT4 20s. Luckily I have my buddies still blown up 408 Denali in my yard so I stole his maybe 2021 Highcountry 20s?

I think they look pretty good, also here’s what I traded for. I put cash on top as well of course.

Cool Jeep!

You got the matching army green crocs yet?

Could use an LS swap.
Is it a 1940's Jeep?

No the original Go Devil flathead 4cylinder works great! Starts faster than anything I’ve ever owned. And yes it’s a 1948 CJ2A

Willy's.

Yes sir! Before water fowl on dash boards became a thing.

Cool Jeep!

You got the matching army green crocs yet?

No actually I’m sanding the green off to match my crocs.


Kinda cool I wasn’t sure what color lay beneath but apparently the was originally a sky blue, then burnt orange, then forest green, then bubba spray camo lol. I’m going to get the whole thing as Blue and orange as I can then slap on a wipe on clear coat like Poppy’s patina.

Also those got new tails to better match the new wheels, I’m really digging the wheels and tires, quieter, and I like the look. Never was a fan of a blackout look, but those black wheels were the best deal at the time.

Other news to report, last week driving Tahoe home the airbag warning light started to come on randomly, then the temp climbed above 210, and volt gauge seemed well below 14.

Got it home and the only thing I found was low almost an entire jug of coolant, I haven’t driven it much since the last time it was down coolant. I see no leaks, no sign of it burning coolant, and no idea wtf. I filled it back up and trailered the Willy’s to show and tell at work today without any issue, very strange.
