SOURCE: how to replace valve cover gasket on 4.0L olds
Hello.
What you want to do is find the valve cover, take the 8 bolts i believe out of the valve cover. You may have to pull the valve cover off with a small flat head screw driver to release it from the old oil and grease thats on the motor. It gets pretty caked on there from the heat and what not. Once the valve cover is off, make sure you dont get any dirt down in the motor, this is very crucial. You now have to get the old gasket off the valve cover. I recommend you getting the old stuff off with a paper towel and a razor blade. Make sure its 100% clean as your can get it. Make sure its off the motor and the valve cover.
At this point you take and bolt the valve cover on with the new gasket and your finished! Hope this helped!

you would have to take extra stuff off... or try going from underneath if you can or from tire side by taking off the shield.... other wise your going to take out more then what your missing with.
