Jeff,

  That Jeep looks awesome. I can't believe how clean the engine compartment is.

Just an FYI, I know the pre 2013 Challengers were recalled for the timing chain on the 5.7's. I assume the same thing in the jeep world. So just check that out. Some dealership hopefully did the recall.

Were the 5.7's chain-driven as well?  I was wondering that - the 4.7's are, and ours has never been replaced at 210,000 miles...  I wonder if it should be, but honestly at that mileage, who cares anymore?  :)

All of the Hemis have timing chains.

That picture of the faded rear bumper cover was bugging me - NOS to the rescue!  Also, front vanity tag!

If a part is only 8 years old is it really "NOS" ?  :thinking: :rofl:

I do like the newer Durangos, though those are some big-ass trucks, and I don't really need something that large.  Plus, they weren't putting HEMI's in them in the earlier models, and the newer models that have HEMI's were WAY more than I wanted to spend.  My newest "boss" just got a '16 Durango with the HEMI and he likes it a lot.
