Let's put it this way, 'happy within the constraints of a gubment salary.' Bought a set of Michelins (245-70-16) last month and am staring down the barrel of a 30,000 mile service. I love my KJ but that doesn't mean I want to live out of her
haha, good reason. I fully understand the situation.
Take it easy on the 30k service. The dealer will tell you that you need a bunch of un-needed stuff done. Front and rear diffs(can be done at home if you know alittle about that stuff), tcase (drain and fill plug), and tranny. Coolant shouldnt need it till after 60k and everything else should be fine. Be sure to check the front suspension(upper and lower balljoints, tie rod-ends, check cv boots for wear, spray silicone spray on all the bushings and clean cv boots up and spray those), brake pads, etc. Check rear suspension, lower and upper control arms, shocks, etc. If the brake pads need changing, wouldnt be a bad idea to bleed the brakes to replace the old fluid.
Could also suck the fluid out of the power steering reservoir and put new in it.
