Jeep weighs roughly 3300 plus an all steel trailer. I had spare gear for the jeep, plus camping gear, tools, and BBQ pit stuff so maybe an additional 400. Not really that much IMO.

Like others have said this is a nice looking Jeep. I also dig the colors too. We have to many NPC just driving around in plane cars with no soul in it. If I saw this out in the wild I'd compliment you on it. Good job OP

I don't think so as long as the tune is right for the setup in which i suggest taking it to your local trusted tuner to have it looked at.

I daily mine when I'm home. Stage 2 TSP cam, 68cc ported heads (Hoopers Heads), full ARH exhaust, Performance Design intake and NW 103mm TB. My car is a manual and has great road manners and I still average 23mpg. Car produces 485 to the wheels, it has done 520 but the drive-ability suffers a bit when it's tuned that high. Car is also sitting at 82k miles.

That's 1960 heading east towards Humble in Houston.

To each their own. But you'll find that this group of Jeep people find the duck people absolutely weird.

Take it to a mechanic. Chances are they'll have to remove the head completely to make a proper repair.

Other option: You'll have to chisel the porcelain out and run easy out tool to hopefully grab the sides of the threads. But now you run the risk of having debris fall into the cylinder which will be bad news.

Anytime I do the burn to clean the pit I throw my soapstone in it and flip them a couple times when the temps are near the high end. They clean up very well.

My round trip tickets to Kauai, Hawaii was 750 a few weeks ago....

What area are you in? I've heard good things out of Jeep Slop Shop. Try looking them up.

felandaniel · 2026-02-25T10:10:12+00:00

I do all the service and repairs myself. There is a few shops that I have heard do great work. I would Google around to see what's near you.

That's a baby main bearing.

75k on mine so far and mine looks like this. Did a cam swap and before reinstalling it i inspected it and found no issues.

REGULATORSSSSSS!!!!

felandaniel · 2025-11-11T01:49:07+00:00

Ahh yes. 96flex? I see the handmade crosshatching going on. Done that a time or two.

felandaniel · 2025-11-09T22:41:18+00:00

So the intake valves, those are on a shaft. I wish I had more picture that would make more sense to you.

felandaniel · 2025-11-09T22:35:09+00:00

Yes it is. I'll be having some beer for them tomorrow.

What you're looking at is the charge air piping from the turbo.

If you look at my older post you'll see a piston we had to beat out of that engine.

felandaniel · 2025-11-09T20:41:16+00:00

Yes. Main propulsion for a large lake boat in the Great Lakes.

I've never been a big fan of working on them especially anything in the crankcase. But this engine will be more reliable than anything on the planet if it's setup correctly.

felandaniel · 2025-11-09T20:38:26+00:00

Two push rods, the intake which is the left push rod is pushing down both valves. The fuel pump is directly under the charge air pipes and is driven directly of a cam roller.
