There is not a darned thing wrong with the 5 banger...parts are easy to get...great fuel mileage...

I've personally took a measuring stick to this bad boy. 18 feet from seat to rear door...thats 12 for cargo and a 6 foot sleeper! It is approx 70" wide to lay side to side TJ is a short azz..*LOL* sitting around 2250 payload as is now...With removal of passenger seat and lightweight bunker...

Congrats Jack.....what made you go for the "New"???

I guess they just don't want us piece mealing a shaft together mixing old with the new...It is a long drive shaft, any misalignment could cause problems...maybe like you said a balance issue..

The 2010's are back to the Mobile 1 0W40 blend... seems the drive shafts are the same, mine the U-joints are not serviceable either...nothing greaseable I know of... Guess I may take a look at the 2012 model IF Mercedes doesn't do a change up yet again...they seem to be on a 2 year cycle of...

Now turned 504,000... I don't tinker, I don't try to create a better mouse trap. Mercedes has been building engines for a long time. I do the PM as required. I use the appropriate fluids. I only use OEM parts from the dealers. There are way too many forgeries out there claiming to be Mopar...
