MAHLE was the last thermostat put in her… no issues happened since then to this day, continues to runs fine, no fluctuations in gauge, or overheating. The dealership even started to have that issue with other customers until we switch to Mahle, solve all thermostat issues.
My 96 xj I would put in 5 quarts of rotella 15-40 and a quart of Lucas oil stabilizer purred like a kitten
Ran t4 10w30 in my 95 Cherokee for the whole time I had it and it loved in. Never ran better
Falken all the way. One of the best tires I've ever had, if not THE best. Never had a set of the Cooper Discoverers that I liked.
Duratracs are hands down the most road capable snow and ice all terrains I’ve ever used. Source live in the Adirondack mountains.
The kenda klever a are good tires. I’ve got them on my 4 door jeep. Ride nice. Handle everything out and about I get into
Switched back to the shitty cheap plastic Mopar one, haven't had another issue in 4 years.
The battery is an Optima Yellowtop 5.5 75h, I changed it in 2018. It has central poles and the negative pole near the windshield. Now given the very high prices of the Optimas and since their lifespan disappointed me, I wanted to get a cheaper battery.
Every 6-7 months the cheap garbage scam of a brand Motorrad remains to be the only available thermostat I can access. I do the temp gun test, I verify my sensors are correct. I burp the cooling system. Everything. I’ve gotten so good at the job now. Every brand of thermostat I’ve tried in Canada is a Reboxed Motorrad. Premium to Economy. 7$-25 they’re all the stupid same. Parts source, Gates , Napa , Autovalue , “mopar” from my dealer. All Motorrad at different prices. I know of 2 they make, the standard oe 195 which is usually economy line. And the fail safe one they make. Both have catastrophic failures, either get stuck open, spring blows apart. Usually after 6-7 months they stop working entirely or the thing slowly stops letting the Jeep get to temp and I dread reliving the Motorrad Groundhog Day effect. It’s a garbage thermostat. People have argued with me that they make OEM equivalent parts and they never have issues but I’ve had nothing but issues.
Got my 21 Gladiator back after 2 months for the fuel pump recall. Damned thing died on the way to one of the only dealers in 90 miles, had to sit through thanksgiving, Christmas, moving into a new house and New Years without a rental or loaner vehicle while they figured out the parts situation.
