My home town Jeep Dealership doesn't play around guys hahah Didn't do anything to the Xj except drive it to work and noticed a groove in the bottom of my T-Case where it leaks, I think it's from a rock or something who knows.

And yes that's a real Xj cut in half on the wall What did you do to your Cherokee today?-image-2512372780.jpg

^ cool beans!

Fixed my broken rear exhaust hanger and right wheel bearing (with the right freaking bearing)

Bought a 30ft 30,000lbs recovery strap with 2 3/4" d-rings that showed up from amazon with the hanger today.

Just need a recovery point for my front and I'm good for any soft trail! Going to scour the junkyard tomorrow.

Changed the oil in my '01 Cherokee Sport at 314,200 miles. Went with Rotella T5 and a mopar oil filter. I had used regular dino oil prior this. Also finished up changing the rear, Dana-35, differential fluid on our '01 Cherokee Limited. Used Advance Autoparts SAE 75W-90 Synthetic gear oil and Permatex gear oil RTV.

Two weeks ago both jeeps through off a "small e-vap leak" code. First step was to replace the gas caps. We put a NAPA gas cap on the Sport and a Mopar cap on the Limited. Code came back on each. I replaced the metal fuel vapor tube that runs from the Rollover valve to the E-vap canister on both jeeps. If that don't work, I'll take them to the stealership for the smoke test.

P0455? That is normally the gas cap. New line to charcoal canister should fix it, but that's usually a P0456 Gross Evap Leak
