DId the same thing to our 2015 with 80,000 miles. I should have done both sides, but I did the driver's side only for the passenger side to start ticking a couple months later. Now I'm off to do the oil cooler. In hindsight, I would recommend if the engine is torn down this much, to go ahead and swap out the stock oil cooler with an all metal cooler assembly. Dorman sells an all metal oil cooler although it can be obtained from other sources cheaper. The oil coolers are notorious for leaking and considering the heat where they operate, it's a stupid design using plastic... Great looking Jeep!
The Pentastar on my 2014 T&C had the Cylinder Head replaced in December because of #2 cylinder. I took it back to the dealer yesterday cylinder #6. Their still working to fix. Better have a warranty or be prepared to pay out a few thousand dollars. Unless you have mechanics skills.
Did you have to do anything special with the timing chain? I've seen a lot of videos when people use special tools to keep the timing chain from falling.
Hi! I did not use any special tools to keep the timing chain from falling but I did use this video linked here to help with that issue.-------> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tcIYSm_J0ZU.html You will need another to person to assist with this project though. There is another video that if I had to do it again, I would do it this way.------->ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OUIQuwnYqbs.html Hope that helps!
It took me about 8 hours from start to finish. I have no experience working on car engines, so I spent a lot of time before getting started watching videos on RU-vid on how to do it and recommendations.
@@DarkRavenWorks Why would you replace the rocker arms with Mopar if they are commonly failing at ~75-80K? Why not replace with a different brand such as Melling?
