Thanks for this tutorial, I made good use of it today.

I would like to add a couple of comments:

Engine mount didn't need to be removed on my '05 WH, I unbolted the 4 torx bolts from the block, loosened the big bolt, and just swung the mount against the inner guard.

I held the engine up with a floor jack and a block of wood on the sump.

Knowing what I do now, I would probably get this out without needing to remove the wheel well splash guard. I think I could do all this from up top. I actually removed the starter via the engine bay, and not the access panel in the inner guard. I could have probably undone and replaced the starter bolts from up top too, but I did it from the inner guard.

I still haven't seen 3 of the 4 torx bolts while they are mounted in situ! I had to use "the force" to find them and remove/replace them. Thanks Daimler Chrysler!
