My '99 has 146K and my '92 has 210K. Unfortunately the '92 was formerly owned by a dingleberry and at most has had about 5 oil changes in it's life I'm guessing. When I got it I had to change the oil 3 times in a span of 1000 miles to get it clear. At least the black chunks in the valve cover are finally going away now. But the oil pressure is a tad low when hot (Rotella 15w 40 too). Heck, it still runs smooooth and has amazing pickup on those interstate on-ramps. It's my winter XJ. My '99 isn't allowed to see snow. It's too purdy.

You're invited, yes you, staring at the screen.

Nothing is quite like making a jeep look like a snowball. Anyone keeping their jeep to see how many miles they can get?

I'm so worried about wrecking mine, I get a little paranoid sometimes.

I just got news back on the tranny whine, they say I have a worn out bearing that's the cause of the noise, but it *shouldn't* be a problem; they say the tranny *should* be fine indefinitely, just noisy. I also have a slow leak on the line going from my tranny to my transfer case, worn seal.
