P0765 Shift Solenoid "B"question.
The relearn should be done by the shop doing the work (with a scanner). I mentioned it just for your awareness. The procedure you referenced will probably work but to say that is the hard way to do it is an understatement. Although Im not a transmission expert, my understanding is the switch...- 24turbo

Rear upper control arm wont go in all the way
If I understand what you are saying correctly, that is NOT the case. When you disconnect the upper ball joint at the differential you no longer have any support to keep the differential from rotating (probably) upward. The shocks and driveshaft will somewhat limit this movement but it could...- 24turbo

P0765 Shift Solenoid "B"question.
If you have a 42RLE that is the correct solenoid pack. Just double check you dont have a 45RFE as I believe some early 03s came with that transmission as well. I know you arent doing the work but be prepared as 2 accumulator pistons fall out when you remove the valve body. Not the most fun...- 24turbo

2003 Liberty w/ 165K miles 42RLE Questions.
If you changed the solenoid pack you probably should do a quick learn regardless of having any issues. Having said that I cant say for sure it will cure your problem. I just did a full rebuild recently and while doing it I did research a fair amount on common issues I can address while it was...- 24turbo

Transmission Failure
If the level is fine, drop the pan and see whats in there. There is a small chance you filter is plugged and changing it will fix it. You can change the shift solenoid also as it may be giving trouble as well. BUT.... My interpretation of your codes: The transmission has sensors to measure...- 24turbo

Front differential crush washer/pinion nut torque 500 ft/lbs??
When I replace a seal I do it slightly different. I make a good quality scribe mark on the nut and yolk. When re-assembling I tighten the nut slightly past the scribe mark (1/64 of a turnish). This assures you have reached the full torque required to crush the sleeve (essentially as tight as...- 24turbo

Front differential crush washer/pinion nut torque 500 ft/lbs??
If the crush sleeve doesnt take much torque to crush I would be weary of it (not sure where you sourced it from). I cant see any reason why it would be less stout than the rear one. A little blue loctite may not hurt as well, because you dont want that nut backing off. It will destroy the...- 24turbo

Front differential crush washer/pinion nut torque 500 ft/lbs??
The procedure you posted makes no sense to me. Install the pinion as described in the procedure, but ignore the whole torque procedure for the nut. Tighten the nut until you achieve the bearing preload noted in the procedure. I assume since you set up your rear differential you understand what...- 24turbo

2003 KJ - fail of 4wd for a short time.
I cant say for sure why your engagement is so slow, but my best guess is maybe your synchro is damaged or the spring is weak or broken. Hard to know the history. I havent had a transfer case apart for at least 5-6 years so Im going by memory here. Unfortunately it will cost a fair amount to...- 24turbo

Cranks hard to start
Hard starting when engine to temp can be an indication of a problem with your Evap system. If its especially bad right after fueling up that is a sure sign its Evap related- 24turbo

2003 KJ - fail of 4wd for a short time.
When you pull the transfer case lever it doesn't necessarily fully lock into 4wd immediately. There are synchronizers that need to mesh together to fully engage 4wd. The synchronizer on one side is spring loaded and it is a slight difference in front vs back wheel speeds that allows the...- 24turbo

2006 liberty limited automatic transmission failed
Unless Im missing your point are you asking for off the shelf/vs local transmission builder? You got a quote from a "local reputable shop" I havent looked into off the shelf rebuilds but i doubt they will be much cheaper. I would stick with a local shop so if you have issues you can deal...- 24turbo

Front LCA bushings replacement
As stated above use a sawzall with Torch blades. And use a TON of cutting oil. Its messy but the bolts cut much faster and you will use less blades.- 24turbo

Bunch of lights with the speedometer and RPM gauge not working
Did a google search and all seems to point to a wheel speed sensor or the speedo sensor on the rear differential (assuming it is still there in 2006 models- IDK offhand). The wiring for that sensor is notorious for failing as it flexes with every movement up/down of the differential.- 24turbo

Don't think oil and filter will fix it
If you switch or rebuild your transmission I believe you will need to do re-learn on the PCM to reset the CVIs (Clutch volume index). I just went through this with my 42RLE rebuild and it isn't difficult with a good scanner. Also if the the torque converter is different have good look at the...- 24turbo
