[QUOTE="SirDoopYJ, post: 429864, member: 19139"] I am looking into doing some more dirty work. I have been putting off the rear main seal for sometime now, but I believe I have the confidence now to get in there and change it out. I will also be changing the valve cover gasket, probably not at the same time. Any tips for each? Should I replace the oil pump while I am able to get to it? Should I take my time and clean up my rocker arms and push rods while I have the valve cover off? [USER=18789]@machoheadgames[/USER] I saw that you installed the girdle on your motor. What is the benefit to this? I am curious. I noticed that the 4.0s in the TJs use them. [/QUOTE]
