depends on alot of factors. Check your owners/service manual. But I would usually say around 50k.

It also helps if your vehicle doesn't run rich too.

have you changed them since you owned the jeep? how long have you owned the jeep?
i run bosch plats in all my junk, they work well for me and are pretty affordable...
the jeep mechanic that we used to hang with like the champions...said that the 4.0 like them too...
i have never had good luck with champions...
and when you change your plugs always always always always buy the premium high quaility spark plug wires, don't go cheap...and a cap a rotor...
i just changed all that in my baby xj and i have noticed an improvement in gas mileage.
