Wish i had the 10mm ratchet as well. Makes it a lot easier on the end of the t60 torx to wind out the oil filter adapter bolt.
When i put it all back together, i buffed the threads on the bolt, used a dab of anti-seize and a smear of grease on the orings. The whole lot just slid together and then just a final tighten up.

The transmission now has a full sump of Castrol Dex 3, and the engine has some new Castrol Magnetec 10w-40.

I know a lot of folk don't believe in additives, but my Jeep has done 325,000 ks and runs great, but has a slight lifter tick.
After reading heaps of stuff, i have gone with this product just to help the Jeep purr along for another 325,000..




Got a lot of good reviews, and at the price, it should have.

I think the next job has got to be rebuilding the Tcase.. but this morning i am taking the kids crabbing..
