I replaced the second set of Firestones on my Jeep Grand Cherokee with these Michelin's and the road noise diminished greatly. They were great in our northern Indiana snow this winter. My driving is 75% highway, no off-road, but we do get snow and ice. I'm pleased with them.

I had 35" Kenda MTs on my JK. I got 80,000 miles out of them . The only reason I didn't replace them with Kenda was because there were none available at the time I needed new tires. I never had issues balancing them and I prefer how they performed off road over my current tires. The Kenda's cleaned out better.
After searching online, I found a brand called Kenda Klever. After installing them, I did a review video on the tires and what I thought about them. Overall, they have been a good tire. Alot of comments I have read say they are hard to balance. I have not had any issues with them so far. I plan on doing another 4-6 month update video review on them to see how they are wearing.
I've had a ZJ fan clutch in my XJ for about 10 years and it's been fine without any modifications. Somehow I got away with it fitting in mine with a Proliance Heatbuster radiator and then again when I switched that radiator out for a Mishimoto.
I run this oil and a mopar filter. Can get them both at walmart for pretty cheap. Keeps my 250k motor happy.
I use the T6 as well and like it a lot. Other people in this forum have recommended in the past as it’s additives are supposed to be good the 4.0’s. Always worked well for me, it’s reputable, not the most expensive and if the additives do actually help, thats only ever a good thing.
In the past I always swore by Amsoil or Mobile 1.
Noisier than my KO2s, but not unbearably so.
Yesterday, I installed new spark plugs in my 2004 TJ. Going off [this thread](https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/what-are-the-best-spark-plugs-for-my-jeep-wrangler-tj-4-0.4196/) I purchased the Autolite XP985. Originally, I gapped the plugs to .04 based on [this thread](https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/spark-plug-gap-for-4-0.17415/). The jeep ran terribly and actually threw a check engine light.
I went back today and changed all the gaps to .035 based on the note under the hood, but I still think the idle is a bit rougher then what it was before the change.
If these are for a TJ (97-05) return them and get NTK (NGK). The 4.0 will not like anything else.
