Cool Hi from the sunsine state!

Hi everyone

My daughter bought a used 2000 auto, grand Cherokee 4.0, 4-wheel drive,
and what do you know,now- a year later it overheated ----then, I found that the ring on the #2 cylinder welded itself to the bore --
just did a "complete" rebuild of the motor,
did all the work (minus machine shop work) in my back yard partially under the shade trees, no auto lift, just the hard way.
well it's finally back in the truck, hooking up the accessories now..
I have been browsing the forum for some helpful info, I found some here and there, so I decided to join up - and introduce myself.
I'm sure we''l be talking soon

welcome to the site. Those 4.0 motors are usually bullet proof.
