'01 XJ 94k never overheated cooling system maintained perfectly head cracked anyway. I'm currently working on getting a junkyard head from an '04 WJ.

I tow a 15' tri-hull and my popup camper, no worries. The rear discs help tremendously.

It looks as though it's too late.... http://www.pressconnects.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070128/SPORTS/701280333/1003/SPORTS

Thanks for posting that, I'll have a look.

PB Blaster, one of the best penetrating oils. Available around here at most places, Walmart, Tractor Supply, most auto parts stores. Aero Kroil is really good too.

I soaked mine and then turned a little out, then in, then out, you get the idea. Didn't break one. If I was home I'd give you a hand, but I'm out of the country on business. Good luck!

We have a '99 outback, wife's car. Bought it new in '99, has just shy of 200k miles on it now. Great cars. Unfortunately we got the Phase I EJ25, so at about 120k miles I got to hone my head gasket replacing skills. I've turned a lot of wrenches on subarus for friends since buying one, and I...

My '01 does the same thing and I know the CCV elbow isn't plugged. I like the RTV idea, if I can get the elbows out I will try it.

I made a custom tool to turn the thingy, but in the future I will save myself the headache and just use the lower radiator hose for draining the system.

Single-edged razor blades. I hold them in my fingers or use a window scraper handle. The gasket remover stuff is awesome!

Go to www.bobistheoilguy.com and search the Used Oil Analysis forum for 4.0 Jeep. You will find the wear numbers (metal in the oil worn from the engine's parts) are typically lower for 40 weights. You can find my UOA's on there under the same username, and my results will confirm this as well.

I would definately run at least a 40 weight. 30 weights almost always show more wear than 40 weights in this engine.

I have the 3/8" and 1/2" click-type craftsman, had them about five years and the cheap plastic handles where the torque settings are adjusted are starting to wear out. I do a lot of wrenching, so for most folks maybe they would last longer, but I can't endorse them at this point. I don't know...

Mobil 1 5w-40.

Also keep in mind that Mobil 1 is one of the thinnest 30 weights on the market. Mobil 1 5w-40 is a better choice for the 4.0 IMHO, that's what I'm running this summer.

I work in Victor, some local wheelin' would be great!

My employer only blocks the porn. Ask me how I know. It was an honest mistake, honest!!

Your best best is to either go to the dealer or buy a kit with all of the seals. You will need a new oil slinger which is a dealer item. To remove the old oil slinger hit it on the portion that sits snug to the shaft parallel to the shaft with a cold chisel. That will destroy the oil slinger...
