    Hey guys. I'm pretty sure I have a cracked flex plate, but I'm wondering if anyone has any methods or advice on how to differentiate the flex plate from some other bottom-side engine problem? The sound I'm hearing is pretty typical of loose torque-converter bolts or a cracked flex plate, but...

    I got really worried the other day after doing an oil change as I heard what I can only describe as a crazy metal-on-metal clanking noise coming from underneath the engine. I had heard the noise from the top of the engine, but it was muffled and didn't sound too bad, but when I stuck my head...

    I am just trying to get an understanding of Jeeps. Currently My dad and I are trying to do an oil change for my 2011 Jeep Liberty Limited 4WD. The place we got it from must of damaged the oil pan by putting the nut on too tight so we tried everything to take it off just to do a simple oil...

    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...

    Hey all, Found out this past Friday that my 05 WK is in need of an oil pan gasket replacement. Leaking oil out of the front but not in massive quantities. Oil inside is still clean for now but they refused to change the oil just in case that caused more issues. I'm not mechanically inclined...

    Hello, I recently bought a 2006 3.7 Jeep Commander 4x4 with about 150k on the engine. The shop did a oil change and engine flush which seems to have knocked some sludge lose. I drive for around 20 miles after the oil change with flush fine. Tonight in the neighborhood I put my foot down a...

    Hi everyone, The oil pan on my 2003 Rubicon is just about rusted through. I ordered the parts, oiled up the bolts for a few days, and started in on it. Much to my surprise, almost all of the bolts came loose without a fuss. I needed to wrench on one bolt with a pair of vice grips. The bolts I'm...

    Ok, so last night I was driving back home on the highway and noticed my oil pressure dropping fairly quickly. I pulled off the highway to a gas station and discovered a small pool of oil under the jeep. I was still about 80 miles from home so I bought some oil and put about half a quart in. I...

    I'm needing to get my oil pan off. The Haynes manual says to remove exhaust pipe and Tranny cooler lines. From looking at those rear bolts near the driver, I see why. Everything is going smoothly, I get the bolts off of the flange, but can't get the thing separated from the header. I can see...

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...

    I managed to drag the TJ into the garage for a couple of small projects this past week, and guess what I see.... :mad: WTF! I can't believe a 2004 oil pan could rust through (yes, it was starting to look ugly before). So, I've started to price oil pans only to get more sticker shock at the...
