Guzzy Build

170k miles since she started knocking she’s let go 15 years later. She got to attend one last jeep club meeting. Her first one was in 2002.

 
If they have the ability to pipe fake engine noises into new cars there has got to be a way to artificially add a ticking noise to your Jeep. Just wont be the same without it.
 
I have a repaired one sitting in my shop if you need it.

Does it have the flex section in it? My factory header on guzzy had a flex section in it, this one is just bent tubing. Both are cracked, I was thinking about welding up the one from my old motor. If yours has a flex section in it I would surely take you up on that.
 
went ahead and got new gaskets on order, I figure I'd rather have them on hand and not use them.

  • My clutch kit from LUK came with a composite throwout bearing housing and it seems it was already possibly making noise so I got an National bearing thats metal.
  • Front input seal on transmission - Possibly the cause of my fresh oil leak on the floor. Will check when motor is out.
  • Rear Main Seal - The motor has an obvious leak from there
  • Front Main Seal - I replaced this on my motor just recently, but I may not do this one if its not too bad.
  • Valve Cover gasket - Can't hurt and its easy
  • Oil Pan Gasket - Its leaking on this motor, and its easier when its out of the jeep.
  • Pilot bearing - This motor was from an auto, so I'll need it.
$180 for all of that, Its a small price to pay for it to not leak on my floor or puke oil on the rocks at Moab.
