Cold Weather Bra
 
Just would like to know if theres any knocks on these things. My truck came with it and from what I understand its a Chrysler OEM specific from the factory add-on kinda deal can't hardly find these things online. Anyway I dont see how it could hurt anything it just restricts the amount of cold air coming into the engine with 4 closable velcro straps. In my opinion it seems pretty nifty and I just put it on today but it seems to get that engine up to temperature more quickly and I have been keepin an eye on that temp gauge to make sure its not climbin over halfway.

I run a winter front when we have cold weather. Nothing wrong with them. :c:

You shouldn't see overheating when used in cold ambient air. Just keep an eye on the temp gauge when ever you are hitting a long/steep grade or towing with it on to make sure everything is in check.

What temps do you normally start using it?

Well I tell you what I had mine all the way closed yesterday and it was about 23 degrees out and she never started over heating by any means I would say you can have them on in the beginning of December. Mine has 4 opening flaps I can velcro it all the way shut or have it all the way open if I want or just close more flaps the colder it gets. All I can say is it works great!

love mine. I drive 75 miles a day and leave mine fully closed and never have any over heating issues. Since I put it on its been between 15 degrees and 35 degrees.
