Hey Guys, I've spent a lot of time on this website but lately I haven't been on much at all, thanks to a new job. I know there was a thread on this subject on the old site and since my truck is getting up in miles I thought I'd ask. I know there are a lot of variables to how long an engine will last but I just wanted to see how many miles some of you guys have on your 4.0s. I'm curious because I like my truck and I really don't want to have to start thinking about a new one or car payments. I think if it died I'd rather rebuild the engine but I'd like to just drive it for a few more years. I've currently got 235,000 miles on mine and it runs like a top. Doesn't use oil, has a slight leak at the back of the intake manifold, doesn't knock, and still has good power. So what do you guys have?
