The OE version is the only one that works. Knock off t-stats will generally last a few weeks to a few months. The OE thermostat has been updated, pops at 203 degrees and lasts much longer than anything else. An OE thermostat seems to fail open. Whereas the knock-offs fail shut.
Reviews of spare parts for Jeep
I recommend KYB shocks but not the Gas a Just ones. Swapped the oem ones out of my Wrangler and installed the silver ones. Rode a lot smoother, and Not expensive.
The brand new thermostat wasn’t opening all the way. One new Gates thermostat fixed the issue.
I rebuilt the stock assembly with a Bosch pump from Rock Auto. It's been going strong over 100k miles. Also threw a new pressure regulator on top. Fixed my pressure issue of having to turn the key off and on several times before cranking to build up pressure.
The support clip comes already attached to the Mopar hose, just like the hose clamps, and definitely should not be breaking within a year.
Owned and drove a 2016 and put 120k miles on it. I only spent money on tires oil changes and wiper blades. I never even replaced the air filter. I bought a 2021 and currently have 70k miles. Same story. Oil changes, wiper blades and tires. I did replace the air filter on this once because it was on sale.
Head gasket is a good start and a great outcome given the alternatives.
I'm running Bilstein on the rear with the quadralift airbags. Seems to be a decent match.
Absolutely horrendous. I bough a new 2024 Keep Wrangler with Nexen tires for rural mail delivery (a mixture of dirt and paved roads) back in October. When I hit 16,000 miles a couple months ago, the front left tire steel belt shredded and a hole bubbled through the middle of the tread creating a slow leak. The other three tire worn down to about 2/32" and were showing chunking and shredding as well. I submitted claims on these tires with Nexen. Their response was that I have overinflated the tires and that it was a. end of life issue.
My nephew's 2018 Jeep Rubicon with 84,000 miles just had both head gaskets, a camshaft, timing chains, and some other work done.
