Pass side???? I sheared all my pass side motor mounts off a month ago....went down a muddy backroad (kinda heavy on the throttle, ill give ya that) then hit a bump on the main road a few min after, and BAM! drove it 3 miles to work with the distributor resting on the twisted mount being the only thing holding the right side of my 4.0 up!
BTW it cost me 4 hrs labor to have it repaired.....$340

Exactly what happened to me!!! Messed me up sitting on the distributor, drilled out the bolts and replaced the bolts as well as a new mount. My dude was really nice only cost me $330 parts and labor.

Wow! Yeah it's not going anywhere with that! Would be pretty sick! Next thing I gotta replace a wheel bearing and figure out this wiring problem that has been killing my jeep
sucks all the power out and won't start I let it charge and sit letting the alternator charge my brand new battery but something is hot after I turn it on that is killing me!! I hate wires!!!

When you think your lifter tick got louder, but after looking under the hood realize its just crap under the distributor cap again.
Yeah we did it again the other way around in front of King Soopers this morning. Funny because both Jeeps have different tires in this pic than the last one (14 hours earlier)
