    Radio is possessed...

    I got one for ya. Driving home today listening to some tunes I tried to adjust the levels on the radio (stock) only to have the radio spazz out on me by dying, cutting in and out, changing the time on its own, and just generally acting possessed. It acts perfectly normal as long as I don't...

    Crunchy Rear End Sounds

    So ever since shortly after I bought the Liberty I began to notice that there is a weird crunchy sound from somewhere in the rear. It seems to happen mostly when you shift weight or direction. Think of going around a roundabout and then turning out of it, that shift in weight and direction seems...

    Photos of white/silver painted steel wheels?

    Guess this is something like a photo request? Is anyone running/has run painted steel wheels in silver or white? Thinking of getting some of those black OEM style steelies people use for winter wheels in 16x7, 4" BS and painting them white or silver. Like the Taco below. Kind of an old school...

    How does OME handle washboard roads?

    Drove the KJ out to a trailhead on a pretty washboardy old dirt road and needless to say on the stock suspension it was pretty insufferable. A lot of my use is going to involve less maintained forest service roads like this and I'm wondering how OME setups handle the washboard type stuff/how is...

    Why are we still here? The legacy of the Jeep Liberty

    I was having a conversation this afternoon with my fiancee about how I went from viewing the Jeep Liberty with derision just a few months ago to feeling a genuine fondness for the little KJ. Which got me thinking about a thread topic here. This forum is old, but there are still a lot of...

    Wheel specs: 16x7, 4.6" BS. Will they fit well?

    Have been going back and forth between black and silver wheels for the KJ. Silver is a bit too factory looking/don't wanna deal with the 8" wide and having to run 265s on the Moabs. Black just doesn't look great to me on the flame red KJs, even though they look great on EVERY OTHER COLOR, lol...

    Talk me out of 215/85/16s

    Like the title says... I'm intrigued because they are a similar sized outer diameter to the popular 245/75/16 but, I kinda like the small/skinny tire look/function, although they may be a bit too skinny. 235/75/16s are another option but they're a half inch smaller in outer diameter. Am...

    Ground Clearance: How Much is Enough?

    So one of the things I'm looking to do more of with the KJ is overlanding type trips deeper into the mountains and surrounding landscape here in Montana (and beyond probably). I've never been super interested in hard off roading or driving through very hard trails just to do it. So one of the...

    Mystery No-Crank No-Start. Stumped...

    The story: So, this morning I did a few errands with the Jeep. Several stops with maybe 3-5 minutes drive time between each. When I came out of the auto parts store, the last stop, I hopped in the Jeep and went to turn the key to fire it up only to be met with...nothing. No crank, no start. The...

    MBRP Exhaust Opinions?

    Anyone used this exhaust? If so, what did/do you think? My old stock exhaust is looking pretty, uh, crunched? It looks like it's sat on a few rocks in its lifetime and was thinking about throwing on one of the MBRP cat-back systems when I get around to replacing the exhaust. Not really looking...

    Cam Sensors: Leak Prone?

    Was crawling around under the Jeep today trying to trace down a passenger side oil leak because, hey, quarantine. Anyways, until now I'd always just assumed it was the infamous valve cover gaskets but 1) I don't have the burning oil smell in the engine bay, and 2) from underneath the highest...

    Limited Seat Comfy Factor?

    Limited Drivers: How comfy are the leather/cloth seats in the Limited? I came to my Liberty Sport from a WJ Grand Cherokee and the seats are just not as cushy as the WJ. They're not terrible but on longer drives I yearn for the cushy driving experience of my old Grand Cherokee. I'm...

    Saying Hello to the Community

    Hey y'all. Long time lurker, recent member. Saying hello. Picked up my new-to-me '02 Liberty Sport about a month or two ago. Before I moved to Montana I had a WJ Grand Cherokee that I loved but left behind. I was originally looking for another WJ out here but had a hell of a time finding one so...
