I sold my 2002 Liberty today.

My KJ is back on the road, new fuel pump solved it. I’m glad because it’s a much better winter vehicle than my Mustangs.

Jeep won’t start and stay running for more than a couple seconds, I think my fuel pump gave out. Getting the KJ towed to a shop for diagnosis.

I replaced a failed power window regulator on the driver side rear door today.

My 45RFE total rebuild is done, I’m picking it up in the morning. Cause of failure was determined to be the shift solenoids, which lead to the transmission internals getting pretty burned up over time.

My 45RFE now requires a rebuild at approximately 127,800 miles.

Replaced a faulty high side valve fitting that caused my A/C to lose pretty much all refrigerant. It’s recharged and blowing cold now.

I used Strattec item # 692958. You need to get the dark gray colored “rock” grip if you have a 2002-2004 Liberty, or the tan colored rock key if you have a 2005-2012. https://aftermarket.strattec.com/product-finder/product-detail?lang=en&id=3179&part=692958&make=102&model=334&year=2002 I...

In the past several days- I added the LED interior lighting from my previous post, cut and programmed a new key that I found out about through another Jeep owner forum, swapped my taillights to Renegade style, and finished the cosmetic upgrades to make my 2002 Limited into an “Overland” tribute...

168 type for front dome lamps (with 2002 factory EVIC)- https://www.amazon.com/Elite-Vision-Titanium-Non-Polarity-Courtesy/dp/B07KY359M4 212 type for rear cargo lamp- https://www.amazon.com/iBrightstar-Extremely-Festoon-Interior-Courtesy/dp/B07QB6QFN4

I changed my interior lighting (overhead map and cargo lamps) to LED since the standard bulbs are so dim. Used CANBUS compatible LEDs I found on Amazon, and they turn on/off and fade out after the doors close just like they’re supposed to.

Got a link to that post you’re referring to?

Got my new wheels installed. These KK 16” wheels definitely fit the hubs of a KJ perfectly.

Oddly enough, I just bought that same set of KK 16” wheels for my KJ. Should have them mounted by next week.

Post pictures of the magnet! I also got a delivery from Rock Auto this week. My ‘02 got new suspension after spending ~124k miles on stock springs and the original struts and shocks. I did not choose to lift it at this time, since my recently purchased tires are stock sized 235/70-16s. I...
