I was closely following the thread from @John Strenk when he did his timing chain as I had planned to mimic the same job on my '85. Let me just say that I hope to never do it again, but if I have to for any reason, at least the gaskets are all new and the HOURS of cleaning (more on this) I had...

Radiator? I'm looking to do this at a buddies garage but I'd only have the weekend to do it. I have a 4.0 inline 6 with a 2" lift. I've found tons of write ups but none of them needing to remove suspension or radiator. However, my buddy said it may be necessary. I just want to now what exactly...

So, it begins... I have a good size weekend project ahead of me. List of things to do (with comments) and in no particular order: Install Bilstein 5100's on front and rear (I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'll figure it out) Decide how much lift I want - have not bought new tires yet...

Really need some help. 01 WJ 4.0 that just won't quit leaking. Just got it and got nearly all work done but this. The oil pan needed to be replaced as the drain bolt would just spin, the nut weld broke lose inside. Either way, I know going as far as the oil pan it's smart to do the RMS too...

Good evening, Jeepers. I have just finished A timing chain replacement (first EVER!) AND an entire new cooling system. Now, I am ready to tackle my leaky oil pan. The Chilton is telling me to take off like six different things (starter, free float the axle, etc.) Is all of this necessary? My...

Hi all, I've started on the task to replace my RMS and OPG. First, thanks to the Forum and all its members who have already written about their work and experience. One thing I haven't yet found in my research is this: The back two bolts on the oil pan seem to be obstructed by the oil...

Hi folks, I have a slight oil pan leak on my 1997 TJ 4.0L. Upon investigation, I found that the two forward most 1/2" bolts were loose and would not drive into their threads. It looks as though the thread of the holes are somewhat stripped as one thread of metal was found in one of the bolt...

Anybody know whats the best way to replace the rear engine seal? Heard all you have to is lift the frame and drop the oil pan. Is this true? Can anybody verify this?

so i was out wheeling last weekend and im pretty sure i blew out my rear main seal. leaked a bunch of oil and even sucked in some mud into my oil pan. After i got it back home i replaced my rear main seal, bought a new oil pan (mine had some nasty looking dents anyway) and a new oil pan gasket...

Have a bit of a leak and was wondering how difficult the rear main seal replacement was for your 4.0? I cant tell if its the rear main or oil pan gasket leaking so I figured I will just dig in to both next oil change. any pointers? thx

Just found a leak in my tj this morning. Seems to be the oil pan gasket, I checked the oil and it's still fine, doesn't seem that big of a deal. Can someone tell me how hard it is to replace the oil pan gasket? And should I also do the rear main seal? Also how can I confirm that it is coming...

Hi, first time poster. I've done a fairly extensive search, but haven't found the answer. I've got a 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ, 4.0 I6 This past weekend I got down and dirty under my Jeep, and replaced the rear main seal, oil pump and oil pan & gasket. The first time I got it all together, it...

I have been working on trying to put the oil pan back on the bottom of my 360. I have a felpro gasket set and this is now my third time trying to get it to work properly. I was wondering if there is a trick to getting the rear gasket to seat properly. Also if there isnt any easy way to get this...

I have a 97 grand cherokee limited 5.2L and it sprung a leak on the water pump housing so I pulled that off to replace it and found out it shares a gasket with the oil pan gasket so im going to replace that gasket while im at it however I cant get the oil pan off it it being blocked in by the...

I noticed one night while driving home on the highway that my YJ's oil gauge started to drop, some one had pointed out to me earlier that night that I might be leaking oil but I wasn't sure if it was actually me because I was at a gas station that had a lot of oil stains, I had driven about 50...

I have a 1998 jeep cherokee classic with the 4.0 i6. I know it is common for the rear mains to go but i took the inspection cover off the transmission and the fly wheel wasn't wet so i narrowed it down to just the pan. I changed the pan gasket with a fel pro gasket and it is still leaking oil...

I am getting ready to replace my Oil Pan Gasket and the RMS. I've been searching all of the posts, taking notes, looking at sites that help explain the procedure Rear Main Seal Service and Replacement , International Full Size Jeep Association etc... and think I am ready. This post has me...
