Not only that, many of the 4.0s with toasted motors then went to the junkyard and were later crushed.

What a great contribution Fram has made to the Jeep community. Let's rally around them!!

One thing if it's an error. .Another all together if it's neglect.
AGREED 100%....and besides that, they're still junk. Take a Fram filter apart, then take a Wix apart...then you tell me which one you'd rather run.
