Ordered a Mopar CPS to throw in the jeep, then ill take out the Napa one in the truck to put in the parts bag.
Ordered a dog divider for the upcoming trip cross country.

I've been running good oil, Shell Rotella, and I even use STP or Lucas with every oil change. I even tried Seafoam in the crankcase and nothing has helped at all as of recent.
If it does the trick, perhaps it will postpone my rebuild a bit.

It sounds like something I need to try if it stops that clacking lifter noise at startup.

Is it a one-time deal, or do you have to use it every oil change?

I did Rotella T6 today and that by itself made a huge difference. I know I have a bit of bearing play, my oil pressure gauge was fluctuating a little bit at idle, but with the T6 the needle is rock solid and I gained a notch of pressure on the gauge too. Not that I had a low pressure problem to start with, just that needle width of movement on the gauge at idle.
