axles look fine, no major scoring. I just cleaned them up with some parts cleaner and a rag. my wife got the pivot points free while I worked on getting the axles in and diff back together. Heading back out tonight to finish the parking brake shoes and then clean up the rotors. still have...

hmm, that should be fun trying to free up that pivot point then... And something tells me that is a dealer-only part if I can't get them free and moving again...

I used it every day up until it siezed/froze/whatever in the winter. But, I've had nothing but troubles with the parking brake on this since the day I picked it up so it was only a matter of time before I had to tear it all apart like this!

Hey everyone, I've got the rear end of my 03 tore apart for axle seals (driver side was leaking) and the parking brake siezed up last winter. The small lever that attaches to the parking brake cable and moves the shoes... is it supposed to pivot, or should it be fixed and not movable? Both...

My wife and my sister-in-laws name everything... They named our KJ "Rambo The Freedom Fighter", but it is usually referred to as just Rambo! My yellow Saturn coupe was named "bumblebee", wife's Sunfire convertible is named "eddy" because when they were growing up, they used to see these...

I'm not going to worry about it, can't be anything too serious! Now, the big orange puddle I just found in the driveway, that is another story! I took the serpentine belt off, the water pump pulley wobbles around quite nicely :p I'm still in the 7/115K warranty, so I hope it is just my $100...

Does anybody have decent sound clips or videos of the options discussed in this thread? I actually just posted asking if anyone had run one of the MBRP cat-back systems.... still looking for clips of that too... Tom

Hello, Has anyone here run the MBRP cat-back? It is available in both Stainless and Aluminized. MBRP's factory is only about 3 hours away from me, so I might be able to get one just by driving up there. Stainless and bolt-on is great, but I am curious how they sound. The web site offers...

Thanks for all of the advice and ideas! I've seen it two more times since my original post, but I still don't know what it is. The last time I seen it, I was out on the river ice fishing and the green stuff had a chance to freeze, so that seems to be ruling out oil... Perhaps I'll taste it next...

Hello Everyone On two occassions now, I have noticed green spots in the snow when driving my 03 KJ in deep snow (6" - 12")... My first thought was an A/C leak... when the condensor cracked on my Saturn, there was green dye that leaked all over the place. But in this situation, I have...

Thanks for the warm welcome and positive comments! It is nice to come to a friendly Internet community! No major plans at this time, just gonna drive it! Nearly a week now and I love it! I would like to pick up a set of clear markers for the front (with orange bulbs), tint the front...

Hello All, Last night, we picked up our 2003 Liberty Sport!! Dark Blue 5-speed manual, 4WD 59,500 kilometers power windows, locks, mirrors, keyless entry, cruise, etc. (no sunroof though) Let the fun begin :) Tom

that sounds exactly like my situation. just waiting on the confirmation of financing, but it is pretty much a done deal!! We have a convertible, so I was willing to live without the sunroof. I was not willing to give up my manual trans, and this Sport is in immaculate condition. It has...

Thanks Dave I haven't bought it yet, but I found a super-clean 03 Sport with the 5-speed. Not a limited, but has all the power options I want (except sunroof, but meh) and it only has 59,000 km on it. manual shift is more important to me than body-colored fenders and bumpers! Tom

Well, I guess I am kinda in the middle between BC and NB hahah! My KJ search may be over already! I was looking 04-07 Limited, but they seem impossible to find with a manual trans and sunroof... I'm not ready to be without my manual trans... I found an 03 Sport, 5-speed, 59000 kilometers...

Hello all, I am searching for our first KJ... 2004-2007 is the year range, and I'm searching in Ontario, Canada. I want a Limited trim, but it seems nearly impossible to find one with the 5-speed or 6-speed manual transmission! I have only ever seen one and it was a new 2007 on the lot of...

Hello everyone, My name is Tom and I've been doing quite a bit of KJ research here on this site! I live in Deep River, Ontario, Canada (half way between Ottawa and North Bay) As the subject says, I am just starting the search for a KJ. My wife and I have two cars, my 2001 Saturn SC2 coupe...
