The 04s had Fel Pro for at least 55-60,000, have to check the records to make sure but know at least that many

Put a blue Felpro one on the XJ fall before last, don't think it's leaking now.

I've got FelPro's on mine - valve cover gaskets, timing cover and water pump. Not a drop in about 80,000 miles :waytogo:

Since its 16 degrees ( feels like 2 they say ) thought what better time to change the oil, grease everything and rotate the tires.
Thankfully it was 65 in the garage, so showed her some love, even cleaned some bird poop off her rear window .............

Decided since my offices was closed yesterday due to snow and cold weather that it would be a good idea to go to the salvage yard and get the rest of the suspension parts I needed to do my lift next weekend. All I needed was the top plates and bottom isolaters for the front and bottom isolaters for the rear and a speed sensor for the front left wheel. Well I ended up walking out of there with two whole coil over assemblies and the rear isolaters for right around $54. Also saw 12 KJ's while driving around yesterday not including my own. So all in all a good day.

Lots of insurance companies offer roadside assistance now. Check rates with yours before getting an additional policy. Might be cheaper one way than the other.

Reach in through the wheel well lining, might need to pop off a few of the clips.

If you are meaning the small T10 blade globe that is fixed inside the main lens housing. On my 04 not sure if the 05 is different it is pulling out push in new one. Easiest to unscrew the grill and remove the entire headlight assembly you have easy access to the plugs then.

Received my LubeLocker 42RLE gasket and Mopar ****** filter for the 05. Might not get to that this weekend but will change the engine oil and exchange some PS fluid.

Why did I try to lift wiper blade when it was still frozen to windshield?
Rip/tear- new blade installed today. :doh2:
Jeep warm up to 195F, after sitting for 2 days- was 20 minutes!
I am glad I waited to roll down the windows, cause even after another 15 minutes of driving, the drivers window was still frozen in place!
The warming of the interior plastics sounds were interesting , snap crackle pop!:gr_grin:

What are you doing with the 02? We need pics of the 05!!!

I'm still dissecting the engine on the 02. It's out and sitting on the stand just haven't had time to remove the bottom end. I intend to fix the 02, just need to see if I need a replacement engine or if I can get by with a redone crank and bearings. I'll be messing with it today if the garage heater will work. I'll try to get some pics of the 05 soon.
