  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bad Moon Rising says:

    Why do almost all the bolts in jeeps come in sizes usually left out of the standard mm toolkits like 18mm ARRRGHH Iv'e had to run back to the store just to buy wrenches and sockets so many times.

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars michelediane miller says:

    The other bolt for air box is top of fender….

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gary Peters says:

    Good thing your bolts were missing on air box cause they are a bitch to get off

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars michelediane miller says:

    Be glad not hydraulic fan…. ugh

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Spinonemaster says:

    I've had a high pressure replacement hose sitting on top of my tool chest for over a year for my 2000 Cherokee … small leak, only when you hit steering end … only Chrysler/Damler/benz wold put an metric bolt on top and an ASE on the bottom … luckily I've been spraying my bolts down for a year with blaster … lol … going to do it today along with 4 hole bosch injectors upgrade and a new Omix oil pressure sending unit … and found my annoying small evap leak yesterday … right angle boot to manifold was mush … 250K and it's never seen a paid mechanic, never been towed … my second cherokke in the last 40 years … i got 20 years and 300 k out of that 4.0

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Scott M Brown says:

    thanks for the post!

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars strange beautiful music says:

    Eric is really frustrating that spider. 🕷

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jeff geletka says:

    Oh and I used an 18mm and a 16mm

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jeff geletka says:

    Probably the most easiest maintenance repair on a Jeep. Like most my air box had no bolts holding it down, no big deal. I would say 20 minutes max and job done. Video is right on the money.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars slant6guy says:

    The AMC designed Jeep 4.0L six with its 7 main bearings + crank girdle is one of the 3 best American gasoline inline sixes ever made; along with the "industrial" low RPM torque-monster Ford 300 and then the Mopar SLANT6 170/198/225 engines that uses 426 HEMI main bearings (thank you Willem Weertman).

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dominique Naomi says:

    The 4.0 is very easy to work on

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Uh Ohh says:

    Where is the power steering pressure sensor switch located

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Donnie Robertson says:

    Great job again like always

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dominique Naomi says:

    I did mine a few years ago. Peice of cake.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James says:

    A bit of spray lube much easier. beautiful dog

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tim Ramich says:

    I bought a Big Larry light. Lasted only a few days before the aluminum cap where the button is wouldn't stay on anymore. The body is thin and the threaded section got smaller from dropping it. Was able to push it out and make it last a few more days longer. I have since got the smaller Larry Trio, which is a single piece (doesn't open to change the battery), and it has lasted me months. Your mileage may vary. My work environment is nasty.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! John Rodrigues says:

    Two basic facts in life. 1) Jeeps break 2) Huskies listen when and if the want too

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Erik Johnson says:

    Hahahaha I love how Sheba came a'runnin when she heard the crinkle sound of the packaging! Mmmmmmm….treat time…uhhhh….no treat time…what a sweet doggo!

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ian says:

    Last video I watched they said to buy crows feet wrenches and said to take both lines off to do the job. I wasted time and money because I already did it. Wish I saw this one first.

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 796andy2 says:

    omg , after fighting with it for an hr , i saw the fitting goes into the pump not gearbox , had to catch my sheperd and forgot where it went …

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 796andy2 says:

    so , mine has the hose going to a fitting in the gearbox and the fitting unscrewed instead of the hose … cant get threads started

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Duffy says:

    Do I see your drinking some good ole Beer?(;

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Duffy says:

    I'm sitting here thinking God please Mr. O please whip out the good ole brake cleen and spray the whole engine bay down 😫😫😐

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eddie Myler says:

    Bro! Thank you! How much was hose? Just curious..

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jake32401 says:

    I blew a line in my XJ 100 miles away from home on my way to Moab last year. What a pain to get the threads started. I hear you on the aftermarket lines.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Out Back Country says:

    Can't get it started by hand , walk away and try again lmao , thats when the swearing starts , as for everyone to own a Jeep , Been there bought the T-shirt , only good for a bush buggy , Money pits are understatement . Never ever another Chrysler Product !

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sarah Sargent says:

    Mr o your jeeps a money pit? Bet my land rover disco td5 is bloody bigger,but I love it.

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A Physics Professor says:

    Jeep might take money but dang they just made sense. Ever look at one of these new 3.6L? I got one in our Durango and I can barely change oil.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Corbett Knowles says:

    You think of jeeps are money pits buyer Mercedes my brother had one and that power steering line on change for him was a pain in the tail it was a your 99 Mercedes E320 just enough room to get two hands down on top of the rack and pinion to get it loose

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Carlos Rodriguez says:

    The owners manual for my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee (aka WJ) says specifically NOT to put ATF in the power steering. Implies it will damage rubber things (like hoses and o-rings).

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Blk Lrd says:

    I learned and was entertained. Great job

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cody Munday says:

    Yuengling will substitute just fine for the good ol Brake Clean haha

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jack Patteeuw says:

    I saw that can of Yuengling Lager ! Can't get that here in MI.

    Looks like you need a case or 2 of brake clean at the cabin.

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Aaron Kimmins says:

    Umm, have you done the wife's timing belt yet?

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Big Dog50001 Automotive says:

    Only thing missing was a Crescent wrench.

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark Holder says:

    Beautiful dog's

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars robert hesse says:

    America doesn’t have measuring system you use the British feet and inches or metric systems .

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MBS says:

    If I cut the line with a hacksaw, will the fluid in the system become contaminated with small bits of metal?

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Scott B says:

    2007 Jeep GC 5.7L Hemi. Most things are a pita to get to.

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sam D says:

    where is your other dog????????

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Norman Gallant says:

    Easy job

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Arsinoe iv Lost Princess says:

    I got a 97 Taurus with low miles from a relative. He got it used and he always complained about the steering. I complained as well the steering felt over boosted. I had topped it up with power steering fluid. Even changed the power steering fluid. The steering didn't feel normal until I took the time to look up what fluid goes in there and it was Mercon iv. Did a flush and filled it actually with V and it's night and day. Instead of over boosted it felt normal with light assist.

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gav says:

    Had to do the same to my 94 GC a few years back. Good job Eric.

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jon Hutchinson says:

    yuengling lager light? cutting back on the carbs?

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars davish50 says:

    Speaking of cutting the metal lines with a saw. Might you get shards of metal in the system from how you cut the metal line?

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Han Skinslo says:

    Eric, a true American, and a good guy. Thanks for the videos, always!

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars john smith says:
