Thanks for sharing.
Couldn’t get mine to budge because of the wheel well bolts.
Cheers.
Glad it was helpful. Cheers!
i took mine down and painted the inside of the Cover Bright white that way if i get a leak i will be able to tell what type ( and Color) of fluid is leaking just by looking down from the top of the motor
If it is white, it could be coolant. I had a leak that dried and it turned a white crusty color. Can you trace back to anything up the motor?
My Jeep doesn't have that cover and the engine bay get very dirty. I would like to put this piece. But where can I find the bolts?
You could google the bolt specs for the guard (they are 10 and 13mm bolts). You could also call your local dealer to get part numbers. You could even google the parts to find them other places.
Anyone know the exact sizes and lengths bolts? Need brand new hardware
Supiste cuáles eran?
Just checked. The five 10mm bolts are M6-1.0 (about .935" long) and the two 13mm bolts are M8-1.25 (about 1.645" long). Don't forget the washers!
I have a question. That square opening in the splash guard…Is that that supposed to come open already? Or does it come with a cover? Also what year is this JGC? Thanks in advance!
Yes it does come open like this. At first I thought it fell off but after talking with other JGC owners this is normal. Its a 2011 Hemi
@@learnsavediy ahhh thanks. I thought the same. I was freaking out because I literally just bought it lol
@@MOSxNY congrats on the new purchase! I have lots of jeep repair and maintenance videos so feel free to stay tune in case you need any more help going forward!
The asshole at the dealership never put it back on after an oil change. There should be an access cover
Hello, will you know the code number of that part, I bought a grand cherokee year 2012, 3.6 engine and it did not have the protection, I would really appreciate it, thanks
I found an amazon link here: www.amazon.com/Engine-Splash-Shield-2011-2017-Cherokee/dp/B07VN9GZYR
Is it the same process for a 2012 laredo 3.8?
Pretty much. There are bolts in the same places but the sizes and number may be different. But yes, bolts on the front, back, and sides.
If you live in the Midwest and the rust sizes up the screws, you end up snaping the nut clip... then your up shit creek bc they just spin!
Great point! I just moved from the Midwest and I can already see rust forming.
