    Texas Anyone here specialize in selling?

    So there are so many places that I can just sell my jeep to but none know what I am actually selling and give a flat rate based on vin and 5 questions. As we all know there are many improvements that add value and some that don’t. Then you bring in the passion and emotion which shouldn’t happen...

    1994 Grand Cherokee, Laredo, 4.0 — Valve Cover — Bolts / Grommets / Torque Limiter Sleeve

    I just bought a whole set of those hard to find grommets on eBay yesterday for my TJ. I’ve lost some over time retrofitting with some washers that worked. The Jeep dealership didn’t even know what they were. I also saw a set on Etsy where someone was 3-d printing them.

    Two questions

    I’m sure all of us that had rental cars kept waving at other jeeps by accident as well as a habit. Also, winter is coming soon…time for frozen faces and burnt feet season.

    Rear Main Seal Replacement (4.0)

    Not sure about that one sorry. Mine was an 05 4.0 I6.

    Two questions

    There are also the median rules which are never clear. 1 lane roads are easy but put a grassy knoll in between there should be a certain distance where the wave isn’t required or on a highway going 81 mph. Also I may be the only one but when I see a jk or JL in front of me I always want to pass...

    Two questions

    I forgot the rules… Do Gladiators get a wave? It’s tough head on sometimes. hey brother, wave, then you realize it has a bed. Also, if I keep my TJ but then buy the new bronco am I a traitor? I don’t talk about it around my jeep as she may hear and break something for fun as punishment.

    Rear Main Seal Replacement (4.0)

    I am also going to throw in my personal opinion about one of your comments. The 4.0 doesn’t care what sex you are and just wants to be played with. My ex gf kicked my ass in the garage. Get a manual, watch YouTube videos, ask here. You will recognize certain sounds and smells over time that just...

    Rear Main Seal Replacement (4.0)

    That sucks and that is wayyyy too much money. If they don’t refund you complain through the bank or cc for a refund. Keep a paper trail of all conversations with the repair place. Is it pouring out, then I would say it’s something else. Mine was just an annoying drip and driveway stains...

    Rear Main Seal Replacement (4.0)

    I would say that as well for the valve cover. When I did my rms that tiny little piece that slides up there is tough to get perfect and my first attempt it cut so I was very slow on the second try. That may have happened as well.

    Rattling at shut off

    I know that there are many threads but want to bring another in to play for thoughts. Over the weekend I replaced my rockers and arms ( don’t know the name) everything went smooth and I have had cable upgrades from jeepcables.com sitting around for months that I decided to put them in as well...

    Texas 2005 4.0 pre-cats with 105k when removed

    Too bad as I am moving to Seattle in 2 months and I probably could have dropped it off but I don’t have an exact date yet.

    Texas 2005 4.0 pre-cats with 105k when removed

    Lol, was going to reply tomorrow. No I have not nor have I tried. Will you want a cut below the first two o2 sensors? If you can give me your personal email address I can send some decent pictures. I’ll need to find a cutter but want you to identify the exact location you want on the pictures...

    I will let you know. I know very well the area you are talking about which was an absolute pain replacing solo. I’ll give this post another week and will get in touch with pictures
