Just finished up Valve Covers and gasket replacement. To fix major oil leaks I have had since I purchased the Jeep.Thank God that annoying smoking is finally gone. Well, it will be once I give the engine bay a MAJOR cleaning. May even take it to be steamed clean.
Once I got in there to take covers off 80% of the bolts were barely tight, no wonder it was leaking! I elected to go OEM, let's see if they hold up to test of time! One difference though was that the WJ originally came with magnesium covers and now they are plastic! I also replaced the spark plugs while I was in there, but noticed I have an ignition coil that probably will need to be replaced. (sighs) Gonna price them tomorrow, may just replace all 8. And, installed a K&N Air filter and replaced the serpentine belt that was squealing due to the oil leak. Cleaned up some of the wire covers and did some tightening up while I was in there!
Overall, I'm very happy and it was a productive evening! And the Jeep is happier too!....lol

Had a rare day off, so I decided to get some QT with the Jeep. Been wanting to take factory Rock Rails off and clean them up and coat them with bedliner spray. Driver's side was no problem at all getting off, the passenger side, on the other hand, was a different beast Had to order new hardware cause I'm gonna have to destroy the existing bolts to get the rail off. Ordered new ones from a specialty shop here in town cause Jeep no longer carries the hardware. Thank God anyway, cause for the price of 3 bolts from Jeep I got all 12 bolts and u-nuts from Automotive Speciality! Finished up drivers side, decided to wait til new bolts get here to do the passenger side.
Had a lot of rust to clean up (sanded and wire-wheel) off the rail. And OMG the amount of debris and rust that came out from the inside of the rail was ridiculous!! These things are definitely getting replaced with a set that has better lateral protection and rust free!

Pretty happy with the way it turned out! Looks SO much better then that faded out gray color!!

Well, my HVAC dilemma continues to get worst! After doing the valve covers and my PIAA lights this weekend, I pulled the Jeep out of the garage and took it for a drive for the first time. Only to find that the heater is not blowing at all now. Not sure what I could have done during the repairs I was making (completely unrelated) that would have caused that.
I have been gathering the parts and preparing to rip dash and replace a lot of the motorized and moving parts of the HVAC system. But dang! This just adds one more problem to the equation!! At least up til this point, I had SOME lukewarm air blowing out! Now.....nada...nothing....now a penguin doesn't' even want to ride in the Jeep!....lol

**edit**
Found the problem, the connector to the blower switch was disconnected. So that turned out to be fairly easy fix! But I found out that the previous owner must have had the switch burn out cause he fixed it (and fixed it right) with Jeeps upgraded switch wiring kit.
