WARNING: THE USE OF INCORRECT ATTACHING
HARDWARE CAN RESULT IN COMPONENT DAM-
AGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
It is important to retain the original attaching
hardware for assembly of the components. If the at-
taching hardware is not reusable, hardware with
equivalent specifications must be used.
METRIC AND ENGLISH/SAE CONVERSION
The following chart will assist in converting metric
units to equivalent English and SAE units, or vise
versa.
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
TORQUE CHARTS
A torque chart for fasteners is provided at the end
of each group (of service information). Refer to the
Torque Specifications chart to determine torque val-
ues not listed in the group.It is important to be aware that the torque values
listed in the chart are based on clean and dry bolt
threads. Reduce the torque value by 10 percent when
the bolt threads are lubricated and by 20 percent if
new.
BOLT THREAD AND GRADE/CLASS
IDENTIFICATION
THREAD IDENTIFICATION
SAE and metric bolt/nut threads are not the same.
The difference is described in the Thread Notation
chart.
GRADE/CLASS IDENTIFICATION
The SAE bolt strength grades range from grade 2 to
grade 8. The higher the grade number, the greater
the bolt strength. Identification is determined by the
line marks on the top of each bolt head. The actual
bolt strength grade corresponds to the number of line
marks plus 2. The most commonly used metric bolt
strength classes are 9.8 and 12.9. The metric strength
class identification number is imprinted on the head
of the bolt. The higher the class number,

INTRODUCTION
Lubrication and maintenance is divided into re-
quired and recommended service tasks. The required
service tasks must be completed to verify the emis-
sion controls function correctly. The recommended
service tasks should be completed to maintain safety
and durability.
This information will assist the service personnel
in providing maximum protection for each owner's
vehicle.
Conditions can vary with individual driving habits.
It is necessary to schedule maintenance as a time in-
terval as well as a distance interval.
It is the owner's responsibility to determine the ap-
plicable driving condition. Also to have the vehicle
serviced according to the maintenance schedule, and
to pay for the necessary parts and labor.
Additional maintenance and lubrication informa-
tion is listed in the Owner's Manual.
INTERNATIONAL SYMBOLS
Chrysler Corporation uses international symbols to
identify engine compartment lubricant and fluid in-
spection and fill locations (Fig. 1).
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
All gasoline engines require the use of unleaded
gasoline to reduce the potentially harmful effects of
lead to the environment. Also unleaded fuel is neces-
sary to prevent damage to the catalytic converter/O2sensor. The fuel must have a minimum octane rating
of 87 based on the (R + M)/2 calculation method.
CAUTION: UNLEADED FUEL ONLY must be used in
vehicles equipped with a catalyst emission control
system. All vehicles have reminders printed on the
instrument panel below the fuel gauge and on the
fuel filler door. The vehicles also have fuel filler
tubes that are specially designed to accept only the
small-diameter dispensing nozzles. It is illegal to
bypass the design of an unleaded fuel filler tube
and contaminate the fuel system.

CLASSIFICATION OF LUBRICANTS
Lubricating fluids and chassis lubricants are clas-
sified according to standards recommended by the:
²Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE)
²American Petroleum Institute (API)
²National Lubricating Grease Institute (NLGI)
ENGINE OIL
API CERTIFICATION MARK
For maximum engine protection during all driving
conditions, install an engine oil that contains the API
Certification Mark (Fig. 2). The API Certification
Mark indicates that the oil is certified to meet the
most critical requirements established by the manu-
facturer.
Conformance to API specifications is determined by
tests that measure the ability of an oil to control:
²Engine wear.
²Bearing corrosion.
²Sludge.
²Varnish.
²Oil thickening.
²Rust.
²Piston deposits.
SAE VISCOSITY GRADE
An SAE viscosity grade is used to specify the vis-
cosity of engine oil. SAE 30 specifies a single viscos-
ity engine oil. Engine oils also have multiple
viscosities. These are specified with a dual SAE vis-
cosity grade which indicates the cold-to-hot tempera-
ture viscosity range.
API SERVICE GRADE CERTIFIED
The API Service Grade specifies the type of perfor-
mance the engine oil is intended to provide. The API
Service Grade specifications also apply to energy con-
serving engine oils.
Use an engine oil that is API Service Grade Certi-
fied or an oil that conforms to the API Service Grade
SH or SH/CD. MOPAR provides engine oils that con-
form to all of these service grades.
GEAR LUBRICANTS
A dual grade is also used to specify the viscosity of
multi-purpose gear lubricants.
The API grade designation identifies gear lubri-
cants in terms of recommended usage.
CHASSIS COMPONENT AND WHEEL BEARING
LUBRICANTS
The chassis and wheel bearing lubricants that are
recommended are identified by the NLGI Certifica-
tion Symbol. The symbol contains a coded designa-
tion. This identifies the usage and quality of the
lubricant.
The letter G within the symbol designates wheel
bearing lubricant. The letter L designates chassis lu-
bricant. When the letters are combined, the lubricant
can be used for dual applications. Use only lubricants
that display the NLGI Certification Symbol (Fig. 3).
LUBRICATION AND REPLACEMENT PARTS
RECOMMENDATION
Jeep vehicles are engineered to provide many years
of dependable operation. However, lubrication service
and maintenance are required for each vehicle. When
necessary, MOPARtbrand lubricants and genuine re-
placement parts are highly recommended. Each MO-
PAR brand lubricant and replacement part is
designed and to provide dependability and long ser-
vice life.
COMPONENTS REQUIRING NO LUBRICATION
There are many components that should not be lu-
bricated. The components that should not be lubri-
cated are:
²Air pumps.
²Generator bearings.
²Distributors.
²Drive belts.
²Drive belt idler pulleys.
²Rubber bushings.
²Starter motor bearings.
²Suspension strut bearings.
²Throttle control cables.
²Throttle linkage ball joints.
²Water pump bearings.
