It's a pretty easy fix, if I remember right you can't fit a socket on it so a crescent wrench works fine. But it takes about 10-15 minutes total

You will only need a crescent wrench and besides that all you need to do is remember that there is a switch under the electrical connection where it plugs in. Flip it to unlock the connector, unplug the connector then unscrew the sending unit.

Salad, that link is for a rear end swap. I'm getting the oil changed right now. I usually do it myself, but did not have the time today or this week. Wife took it to reputable place down the street. I usually use Motorcraft 10W30 Semi-Synthetic, but couldn't get my hands on it, so it's getting Valvoline Semi-Synthetic 10W30 instead with a Napa Gold oil filter. About to turn 100k on it.

Whoops, I wonder how I messed that up...

This is what I meant http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f310/...ite-up-733669/

At least I think it is. JeepForum won't load for me at the moment.

Try the Rotella T5 next time. Synthetic blend and comes in a 10w30. I used it this time and I've already noticed easier star tips when it's really cold
