The spark plugs should be changed every 30,000miles. PVC valve(every 30,000miles) Coolant flush T-stat upper/lower radiator hoses Brake flush(check brakes)(every 2-3 years) Serp belt/tensinor(every 60,000miles) P/S flush Trans flush+filter(every 30,000miles) T-case fluid change(every 60,000miles) Fuel filter F/R diff fluids(every 12,000miles) Your lacking on your basic maintance,doing half of the above will actually ruin your KJ from the fact you will free up the sludge and wreek havoc on your components. |

I have had a bunch of vehicles go over 100,000 and never considered 100,000 any different than 30,000 just do the regular maintenance, mines at 108,000 now and getting ready to do the reagular oil change / tire rotation etc |

I agree with tom. Although I do things at 30k that I dont do at each oil change I think regular maintenance is best. At a minimum the axles, tranny+filter, tcase, spark plugs, belt, and hoses should be done. Make sure the proper weight is used in the axle and ONLY ATF+4 is used in the tranny. ATF+4 can also be used in the tcase. Weather or not you drop the pan or do a full flush on the tranny is up to you. If the fluid has never been changed a flush may be a bad idea. |

I'd also think about the fuel filter which I have heard is a PIA to change. |

I use autolite double platinum plugs. Those or the NGK copper core plugs are good. Yea, you can get all of that at autozone. |

'05 with 100 thousand? Man, I got an '06 with 16 thousand. My big fear is that 10 years from now i will be tooling on down the road, and you guys will have moved on to new vehicles and there will only be a few of us left....LOST will really be lost.... |

I have done NOTHING but change the oil on this jeep. That should give you hope. |

Know what you mean I used to drive 98 miles one way to work everyday as well. Doesn't take long to add on the miles, and I did that in a full size Bronco and the Cherokee, switch them every week!  Oh and Walmart was 65 miles away! Miss living there

I haven’t heard of any clogging concerns with the fuel filter at 100,000 miles, but I agree, it might be worth doing. If I were doing it, I would probably go ahead and change the fuel pump also. Might be overkill, but it would be a good time to do it. |
