See your winning. The Jeep motor has the crank in it, thats it. The mains are all one piece called a bed plate. 26 bolts hold it on. Some have in/lb and some have ft/lb. It was a pain trying to find a in/lb torque wrench, then I promptly broke it on my last bolt.
Then installing a piston yesterday i bent one of the oil rings, I don't have much experiance with band style ring compressors. Every motor I have ever built to date has been 4.030" My buddy has a tapered ring that size and thats all we've used. Plus the rings came with no instructions. Two completely different rings. Then the rod bolts I find are one time use. I can't find new ones. So it's either dealership or gamble on the TTY bolts will live twice.

OMG brother that thing is giving u a tuff time,never worked on a jeep motor before,can only imagine what ur going thru,yeah them band ring compressors are junk in my opinion,i used them to rebuild my first motor after secon piston was installed i broke the ring on the third piston,and i went and got a tapered one never again.
wow dont know what to say on the rod bolts the factory ones im sure aint cheap,maybe i would gamble on reusing them if it was me.
ur still winning bro ur car is completely in primer mine aint even half primered yet.
