    Engine pull for freeze plug

    So I need to do my rear freeze plug on my 2000 4.0, decided I'm going to pull the engine to do them all. What else should I do when my engine is out, it runs good 124k on it. I don't plan on a complete rebuild but figure I would ask about some things you would freshen up when its out. Thanks!

    So I got my phone in there and seems it must of been leaking for while and I just missed it when I bought the jeep. I've only put 70 miles on here lol. So the ones below my exhaust need addressed, or the back 2 at least. The back one on the head is not leaking. I think the second to last one...

    Best SYE for future tummy tuck

    So my plan is the 4in zone, then when I'm ready to tummy tuck I'll get savvy 1in bl and mml, I thought about the zone 4.25 but I wanted 4in of suspension and I think I want new motor mounts and not just spacers.
