Default Well...my jeeps going to die soon.

Its been making noises under the engine in the oil pan for about 8k mile now. Ive always blamed the bell housing cause it came loose once before. But the past 2k miles or so it sounds awful when i rev the engine and the rpms started to come back down. but she still run like a champ. Ive had 4 mechanics tell me its a wrist pin. So im gonna have to figure out if im gonna rebuild it or find a JY engine. Jeeps got 198104 miles on it. I so want her to last until 200k! (will make a great pic haha). I only paid 500 Bucks for her 5 years ago with 122k. And I definital have CF to thank for gettin me this much out of my jeep. Thats my story.

So Thanks to everone in advanced for all help im gonna need when she finial kicks the bucket.
