Given the choice between finest part in the world (although the original did fail) with very limited warranty backup, vs, cheaper, though perhaps lower quality, part with unlimited free replacement, I'll sell the one with warranty every time.

If they used MOPAR factory parts, you're pretty much on your own. Do you have the invoice so you can look back? Any REMAN from A1 Cardone, AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, and I believe, NAPA will have warranty.

I sell (when the customer's not wanting the cheapest China rag) BFG All Terrain KO II whenever I can. Excellent mileage, traction, tough, with very little noise.
Nitto's also a good choice.
Bob
Do you know if they're covered under warranty? Many come with lifetime warranty, check it out. Re-doing the labor's a pain. Re-doing the labor plus out of pocket additional parts REALLY bites!

Sure. A good, solid, well maintained vehicle that's been conscientiously flushed after salt exposure, that would probably be a sound investment. For I'd guess, 85%+ of Yankee rigs, probably not.

Then again, a vehicle that's been exposed to MI salted roads for 10 years, just a pair of Monroe MON 181577L (left) and MON181577R (right) quick Econo struts at approx $115. each would revive the old girl for as long as the rest of her lasts.

I'd love to see what you're basing this on. Wix was a subsidiary of Dana until sold to parent company Affina. Along with Ecolast, Nakata, and Filtron. They might actually build whatever line of filtration products Amsoil has their name on, but not the other way around.:emotions34:

Unless in a particularly high stress application, most automotive bolts are simple grade 5. You can easily cut em with a hack saw. High stress, they will be grade 8. If you buy grade 8 you'll only be out a couple/three bucks additional and be using a better bolt than most original. with the...
Wider than the roof, and no drilled holes? Maybe several coat hangers bent to go inside door frame and held tightly in place when the doors are shut?

I find the idea of putting any penetrating oil on an OIL DRAIN PLUG both the most humorous and at the same time asinine thing I've heard in a while! There's a gasket between the bolt head and the seating area of the pan.:emotions34: You can be assured that ALL the threads on the other side of...
Get a kit from the same machine shop you have work the heads, turn the crank, bore the cylinders, etc. If you don't have the mentioned machine shop work done, it don't matter which kit you get. It ain't gonna last very long anyhow.

Nearly every 4 stroke engine modified for marine use has to have the oil changed by siphoning it out at the dip stick tube. There's not enough room between the bottom of pan and drain to put a drain bucket and even if there was, there's no way to get the drain bucket out without spilling oil...
