Who doesn't have anything wrong with their Wrangler?
45k miles, most of that with the 6.1. I replaced the first used 545RFE tranny with a brand new one shortly after the conversion but that was not the JK's fault. Started life with a manual and the clutch/TB was replaced under warranty (TSB).
Other than that no repairs over $50, unless one counts......tires.
I think I will have to put some money in replacing some suspension parts this summer, but the poor Jeep is carrying an extra 600 pounds or so past stock (most of it on the front end) and I twist it up at times. The fact that nothing has gone bang! is a tribute to the toughness of this particular JK.

08' JK Rubi with 99k...
Pretty much the only thing that's HAD to be replaced are my ball joints. Though right now I have to rock my girl like its 1999 to get her to start some times. But I figure I just need to tighten the battery down.

I'm sure it's not critical but Mobil 1 is NOT approved per the Chrysler standard to use in your jeep. With so many other choices, I choose to use a synthetic that does carry the Chrysler certification. I use penzoil ultra.



, knock on wood!
