While I was under Wrecked J during the lift I had a great oppertunity to change out the cracked oil pan... While I was changing the oil pain, I replaced the rear main seal, and of coarse, I just had to upgrade the oil pump! #Jeep #Cherokee #XJ #lifted Jeep #oilpan #rearmainseal

This is the most comprehensive one I have seen so far! On my stock ride height 01, I used 2 small bottle jacks to push the front axle down for the oil pan to clear the pumpkin. It took me at least a day to think of that. There were a lot of videos on missing Axles and lifted jeeps, but nothing on stock ride height. I have shared the idea with a few people since then. Great video Dan! Thorough as always!

@15farcry 2 года назад

One thing to keep in mind if you're using an aftermarket oil pump. Some of the cheaper ones you buy online can have clearance issues with the crank counterweight. Had this happen where after installing it, awhile later we couldn't figure out why the crank couldn't make a full revolution. In other words, after you install an oil pump on one of these engines, check to see if you can rotate the crank a full revolution. LOL As always, awesome video Dan!

What a great video. I was wondering if you used aluminum or tri metal bearings I did not see the part number in your description. Also I didn’t hear you mention why you were replacing the oil pump and why you modified the oil pan vs getting a different oil pump . Was it just because you already had everything apart you decided to change the oil pump. Thanks for all the work videoing. You do a great job explaining and capturing what you are talking about

@ProjectDanH День назад

Thanks man! Sometimes I just get the parts that are the most affordable but sometimes I get the parts that are readily available to get the job done quickly. For sensitive parts like bearings I try not to make recommendations cuz I don't want to be blamed if a part fails.. mostly my main objective is to just illustrate how to get the job done. If you do your own research you could be confident with whatever part you choose 💪💪💪. Hope this helps. God bless

@frostbitten333 Месяц назад

What size bearings did you go with? Typically i think you would want to use a plasti gauge to measure what bearings are needed. But then again ive heard alot of people just slap in the standard size ones and send it.

@ProjectDanH Месяц назад

I used standard bearings. From my experience , even with polishing some scratches off, plastiguage usually confirms standard bearings are within spec

@teddsteele7985 8 месяцев назад

fn aya!!!! exactly what i needed this vid bad!! i developed a horrrendous tick one morning...i finally learned my RMS was leaking, and didnt know it. SO, down 2.5 qts of oil, and the rap, rap,rap started. Because the rap was the same timing as the crank, it had to be something underneath... I have yet to pull the oil pan to determine if it is a skirt fly off, or just rod bearings toast, or even non existant. RAP is noticable at all rpm's but much less at higher than 1800 rpm... replaced oil(again), but no metal flakes in previous oil, so i'm hoping for minimal scarring or cylinder damage. The things in your vid is exactly what i'm wanting to achieve once oil pan is off. I have a stock 97 4.0L w/266k orig miles on engine... guess it had to go sooner or later. I also recently replaced rocker arms and push rods, but no change in the RAP... but it does have better performance. No real nasty wear; just normal on the rockers... i would like to replace lifters as well, and i might just bite the big bullet and replace pistons only. depends on what i find after pan removal..

@markruiz1237 2 года назад

Instead of using rtv, you should leave a little bit of the end of the top seal sticking out so that the two seals dont meet at the same spot where the block and cap meet

@ProjectDanH 2 года назад

Excellent tip! Great idea to offset the gap too!

@nevadaboy9769 2 года назад

Your suppose to offset the seal no more than about 3/8" then you use anerobic sealant on the machined cap ends, they tell you not to use silicone there because it can alter your bearing clearance but ppl seem to get away with it for the most part i guess as long as you have no leaks then all is good 👍

@nevadaboy9769 2 года назад

The question i cant get answered though is they give you the plastic shoehorn to avoid cutting the seal upon install but when you offset the seal there is no way to use it upon installion of the cap so your basically taking a chance of cutting the seal when you put the cap on! go figure

@sergiogomez170 Год назад

How did u prime your oil pump

@ProjectDanH Год назад

Drill on the shaft in a bucket of oil! This was a replacement pump and works on camshaft rotation, you can prime the oil pump by pulling the starter relay and cranking it over with the key. If it was a new engine build id definitely prime it in a bucket first.

Did a HV HP oil pump on my 2001 XJ when I did rear main seal a few years back. My oil pressure hot at idle was down to about 25 lbs. After the HV HP pump it will maintain 55 lbs hot idle all day. Cold at 3/4 throttle, it will go to 75-80 lbs. Hot it will go to 65-75 lbs. I put in Scorpion 1.7 roller rockers, it's like a new truck. You can feel the HP and Tq difference, part throttle and full throttle. I have a bigger TB, with smooth spacer and returned the rest of the stuff, ( injectors, airbox ) back to stock. Stock thermostat, factory HD radiator and 3 fan electric fan set up. My fuel milage went back up from pig rich with the cold air mods and all that other junk. The factory computer doesn't like a lot of the performance mods, especially T-Stats and injector mods.

I have a 2001 xj with deathly low oil pressure at idle, do you think main bearings and rod bearings would heal the pig?

@TheAngryCamper 9 месяцев назад

205k miles

@ProjectDanH 9 месяцев назад

yes, but If your gonna do main bearings you might as well just rebuild the whole motor

@TheAngryCamper 6 месяцев назад

@@ProjectDanH Yeah, put in all new bearings and did almost nothing .... even added a new oil pump, now the real main seal leaks like a sieve.....

@Brettmlyons Год назад

Is it worth putting in a high flow oil pump when doing this job? Or just replace with the regular volume pump?

@brandoncreel57 Год назад

The bearings I guess I need to specify were the bi metal aluminum or tri metal bearings

9:50 gives the oil pan bolt sizes. For my own future reference.

What made you do the connecting bearings. Was there an issue or was it since you were into it already?

@ProjectDanH Год назад

I figured what the heck. lol

What does replacing the bearings do for you?

@ManleyMachines 2 года назад

Dan!!! Machined surface on that rear main cap!! No RTV, ever! You've introduced thousandths of clearance that aren't supposed to be there.

@ProjectDanH 2 года назад

Everything is machined on the engine.. I've done it a dozens of times with no problems

@JoeVizethum Год назад

another question: how did you manage to reinstall the oil pan with the pick up tube hooked up to the new oil pump ? When you removed the oil pan, you disassembled the pick up line from the oil pump to get enough clearance.

@aston3079 Год назад

He took the axle out when reinstalling

@JoeVizethum Год назад

@@aston3079 thanks - I have a stock front axle set up - removing the starter, disconnect the sway bar link and drag link from the pitman arm should work in my case to lower the front axle and have enough clearance to remove the oil pan ?

Great job and best tutorial again ! How many miles on your engine ? Mine has 187K and I plan the connecting rod bearing-project soon. I'm expecting some major issue when removing the oil pan due to having a non lifted stock XJ - any tips here ? Also: the Mahle part no for the bearings ? - Thanks pal !
