02 Jeep

This Jeep is a 2002 Grand Cherokee Overland. The customer was referred to GC by another customer of our, after his local dealer "diagnosed" he had a blown engine. They charged him $400 and sent him on his way. He called us, we went and picked up the jeep from the dealerships back lot towed it to our shop which is about 60 or miles away. I asked the customer if he might remember anything the dealership mayhave told him, he said misfire #5 and metal in the oil. When we pulled the bad engine out which was locked up, this was in cylinder 5. That valve broke right at the retainer, dropped and was bent in a 90 from the top of the piston. This is a 4.7 HO or was a 4.7 HO

No engine, no hood.


I think somethings missing
So not only did we put in a new engine. We polished the aluminum valve covers, and threw in a throttle body spacer.

Here is the new engine installed and ready to go. We always pick the car up from the customer and return it to them fixed right the first time, washed and detailed.
