Just a quick double check. Recently gunned my 98 (233k miles) merging and had a horrible metal noise that required a tow later. In trying to replace a chewed up belt while waiting for the tow, noticed the harmonic balancer had drifted into the fan belt. Fortunately only that. But over the last 5 or so years I've been replacing parts on the Jeep that are old and rubber and aging out. I'm pretty sure there's nothing left that's mission critical. I still need to do front bump stops, but I've done sway bars, control arms, motor and transmission mounts, rear bump stops, leaf springs a while back, and now harmonic balancer. Just want to ask if there's anything else I should check. The little stuff I don't sweat but this was annoying.
