Yeah, that's the new gasket that I posted way back in Post #6. ;)
Sorry, I didn't realize you posted the part #. My bad.

Much appreciated!

$50 on Amazon. I´m going with the dealer. $5 ain´t worth the risk of a Chinese copy. Thanks again!
Ordered from Benny at @AllMoparParts.com along with a serpentine belt for my Wrangler. He´s Da Man!

How many dollars would a person actually save?
Redline is $17/quart on Amazon, MOPAR/ZF 8&9 speed is $14.50 if you buy 7 quarts.

MAXLIFE is a different animal - there is a cost savings there, but I won't spend 60K on a vehicle, add the best accessories I can muster, and then save $40 bucks or whatever on maintenance of said vehicle.

I guess that's just me. If I spend that much on a truck, and cringe at the cost of maintenance, I bought the wrong vehicle. The other stuff may work fine (but you can't prove it has zero impact - not possible to prove) - but there's still no compelling reason to switch! And the ones that spend mega-bucks on pretty wheels, and things to dress them up are often the ones who then insist "fluid is too expensive!". How ironic.
Install things for the cool factor.......and balk at fluid cost.

I guess I'll never understand that.
I feel the same way. I don't get it either. There is something you know works, tested by the manufacturer, used by the manufacturer and you know works.

Then some try to save a few bucks on maintenance on a vehicle that may cost a significant percentage of one's annual salary. I don't see the point.

Is there any chance that a fluid change will cure the reverse gear clunk? Probably not.
