I have the same tick around that rpm too. I have 44k on my 08 Sahara. It soulds like the lifters. Anyone know if they are adjustable and what the clearace might be?
I'm using 5 quarts 5w-20 Valvoline Maxlife and 1 qt Lucas stabilizer. (found it was 2.5 quarts low and had 2k on the oil change!)

There is not a single adjustabe component in the engine. The dealer told me that it more likely a rocker or valve carbin. Use 10/30 oil and seafoam more than likely there is carbon build up. Also when you us stabilizer you should use it as a replacement for one of your quarts of oil. I am losing oil too but not that much.
I found it somewhere that it takes 6 quarts but seems to be a smidge over, o well it will use it..
