    I tried the search, but came up short... I'm assuming this topic has been covered...

    Curious when you guys change your timing belts. I've got an '08 4.0L and I couldn't find any info suggesting when. Any help would be appreciated!

    Cheers!

    I think the 4.0 has a timing chain which don't have to be changed at the kind of intervals that a belt has to be. Though it should probably be changed at 150,000 +/- miles.


    Yep.
