    Thanks to all, and bandit steve for the photo. That was a big help. There was a service bulletine released ref. chirping belts, I just wasn't aware of it. I went with the 6 point shorter belt. I too left the old pulley on there and put the old belt in the jeep as a just in case...

    6 point or 7 serpentine belt?

    Hi, I need a new serpentine belt/fan belt/Drive belt. Did a search, found little ref belts. Napa says they have 2 options, a 6 point w/AC and a 7 Point w/AC Am I correct in assuming that "point" means "rib" so a 6 or 7 rib belt? I don't want them to order the wrong belt. I have a...

    3.7L intake posssibly fit my 2.4 Libby?

    I also had a difficult time finding a high airflow filter. You can find a K&N filter for a wrangler 2.4 which has the same air box. I did. That being said, now that it needs to be cleaned/washed, I put a new paper filter back in, instead of spending more money on the cleaning oils for the...

    Oil consumption, Factory Warranty?

    I've been a lurker for a long time esp. on Lost, . Just a lot of learning, w/o much to contribute. I have a hitch on mine also, for the boat/ trailer etc. Biggest problem with that is 1st being geared to high. I really have to ride the clutch or put it in low. And that can be difficult...

    Oil consumption, Factory Warranty?

    I guess that would be good if it was a pcv issue right? would be the least/no engine damage, i would think What kind of clean up is going to need to be done. I assume there will be oil residue where it shouldn't be. Or will they fix the issue and let it burn out/off. couple bottles of...

    How about 235/75-16's - On an '06 Renegade?

    I have 235/75/16 on my kj. Came with 215/75, bought some rims with 225/75, and then got a good deal on the tires i have now. They fit well. A very small amount of rubbing at full lock. Rubs next to the fog light door (front of wheel well) Such a small amount though almost not worth...
