2002 I6 auto 41K miles
Stock with original Goodyear tires - They will be getting replaced next couple of months.
This Jeep has been a road vehicle. Only trail riding has been mild on gravel, dirt or manicured lawn.
It has had an off set steering wheel that tends to move, sometimes centered, sometimes off to 1:00 or 11:00. Drives straight, tire wear is even.
Dry steering test, can't find anything unusual or moving, but want to get the steering center issue straightened out before new tires.
Tie rod ends replaced by PO done by a garage.
Suggestions have been track bar or TB bushings. Seems solid when I did dry steer.

What type of mileage should we be getting on stock Jeep parts wearing out?
Thanks, Pete

Billiebob,
First owner was an elderly couple, oil changes ever 3k or so, have the receipts. PO had it for 6 months. I don't think it just sat for lengths at a time, picking through the oil change receipts pretty consistent mileage up into the last year or so before we bought it.
It was always garaged, didn't see rain. Factory soft top had never been fully installed / stretched until we bought it. I unwrapped the windows from the factory packaging to install them. Factory tires are going soon.
Only paint chips are on the top back of the tub.
Underneath has been bedlined by PO. No rust anywhere.
