Maintenance Tips Wanted

[DIY4X4]

I was wondering what kind of maintenance tips folks might have out there for our Jeeps: oil changes, diffs, trans, etc. Post 'em, and let's all benefit from that ah-ha moment, or not. Lol.

Mine is kinda silly, but it certainly keeps the oil off the garage floor when removing the oil filter. Just place one of those supermarket bags below the filter and unscrew. Filter and any remaining oil drops in the bag. Keeps oil off the starter wires and exhaust on my TJ.

Use a torch to get the diff plug out.

Use anti-seize on anything on the engine that is removed frequently.

Oh yeah, when you are trying to install a body lift or body bushings, don't prop up the body with your back. It kind of hurts.
