Mine is only 8mi but here I am, less than 2.5 years later with 52k miles on the odometer. And I have 2 vehicles I can drive!

Just don't drop it

If my business identity wasn't tied to my truck I'd trade it for a Tesla. I'd cry and my wife would probably leave me, but it'd save more money than I like spending on gas at this junction of my life.

This and the info/discussion related to the worn engine pics above are worthy of their own discussion. Wonder how much it would cost my dealership to open things up and let me take pics

Might be worth looking into changing after the factory 60k mile warranty is over?

How is it not a ball bearing test? Your link provides the following. " During a four ball wear test a rotating steel ball is pressed against three balls firmly held together and immersed in lubricant under test. " This would be a different stress than sliding and movement of cams.

I would think ball bearing wear is different from sliding force wear

Some sources have EtOH as being added in 1903 http://www.usenvirofuels.com/history.shtml Others a few years later, though using ethanol as fuel in an engine goes back to 1800s https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/energy/biofuels/energy-briefs/history-of-ethanol-production-and-policy

Only a couple places near me carry it. $5/gal

I had similar sounding issue on my 2020 but dealership never noted anything during usual inspections when I pointed it out. It has since mostly gone away at 50k miles (started at 30k miles)

Info on TSB?

Problems seem to continue. https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/no-more-oil-filters-or-wiper-blades.89795/ Went to walmart today. 3-4 jugs of Mobil 1 (each a different weight and specialty), little choice on other oils. A few boxes of the Supertech Walmart brand at the bottom folks...

I traded a 2010 civic getting 35mpg for my JT. No regrets. That will probably not change.

I heard it hit $7 in some parts of your state. Over $4/gal here.

What I wondee is that the engineers for this vehicle put a lot of good thought into the off reading aspects. They intentionally raised the transmission vent tube and diff tube. If they could have raised transfer case tube, and it looks to be a very easy thing to do, why didn't they? Perhaps...

Yes but this one at least worked on his own rig so I had hoped he'd shorten the time to that posted. I've never "turned a wrench" before this outside of changing the oil.

Quadratec: 1-2h installation time Actual with help from an engineer who did the bolt-on/cut/welding mods on his Yota: 6h.

This is actually of interest to me. That tube turn part is easily hit on trails.

Read plenty of negative things about them on the JL and other forums. Keep one as a spare in an emergency because it will take being with the other gear better than a paper filter.

I may not have been clear enough. Between Lexington KY (the last place with a charging station) and my in-laws is at least 150mi of winding mountain roads, with no charging stations in-between. So leaving with a full charge could get me to the destination, but I couldnt make it back. The...
