    06 Liberty 42RLE Trans Flush

    The trans in my old Liberty didn’t seem to be shifting all that great, it has 139,000 km on it and had one previous filter change. I dropped the pan and replaced the filter, the pan drop replaces about half the fluid, the dry fill capacity is listed as 8.8 quarts. So I decided to do a full...

    17” Rubicon Wheels on a Liberty

    What’s the overall height of your tire, in the photo that I posed it looks like their might be some clearance issues. I sent an email to Synergy inquiring about a hub centric adapter.

    17” Rubicon Wheels on a Liberty

    Does anyone have any information on putting 17” Rubicon wheels on a Liberty? I really like the way these look. I’d be putting them on a 2006.

    Emergency brake won’t hold vehicle!

    To sum it up it looks like my expectations were just too high. If I pull on the brake REALLY hard it will hold the vehicle, this brake is awful. I did check the brake lever and mine seems to be working properly. Thanks for the input.

    Emergency brake won’t hold vehicle!

    I appreciate the replies. I adjusted the star wheels on the shoes until the shoes were in contact with the drum and then backed them off slightly. I checked my parking brake handle and it’s not slipping or popping like in the post. I’ll double check it and make sure that it’s consistently...

    Emergency brake won’t hold vehicle!

    I have a 2006 Liberty and the emergency brake doesn’t feel firm, it feels springy (for lack of a better term). I’ve replaced every piece and it’s no different. I’m actually wondering if the activating lever for the brakes is installed incorrectly. The L and R were on the wrong side based on...

    ABS Issue

    If it’s just the electronic module that needs to be replaced it’s about a 1/2 hour and the code read takes no time at all. The control module with the pump on the hydraulic side is more time consuming (3-4 hrs) and requires a full system bleed.

    ABS Issue

    I’m having an ABS issue with my 2006 Liberty and I’m looking for trouble shooting suggestions. If I lock or spin the front wheels there is an ABS fault, the dash lights (ABS, Brake, Esc) all come on and the ABS system doesn’t work. If I shut the vehicle off and restart it the system resets. I...

    Auto Transmission Flushing

    There is a filter change, which involves dropping the pan, changing the filter, and topping up the fluid. Depending on the transmission only about a third of the fluid is in the pan. (Sounds like that is what you had done) There is a flush which involves using a flushing machine that is...

    Auto Transmission Flushing

    Hard for me to give much merit to a post full of childish comments and nothing resembling any technical information. FYI - A Ford service manger was well aware of the process. But I wasn't looking for information in relation to doing this on a Ford, I was looking for meaningful input in...

    Auto Transmission Flushing

    I posted this in reference to the flush not reusing the gasket. I did this process on a Taurus and it worked really well. There was a noticeable improvement in the trans shifting after I did the flush. I didn't run the trans dry, as soon as the flow slowed I shut the engine off. Not enough...

    Auto Transmission Flushing

    Does anyone know if a process similar to the one I've posted below will work on the KJ transmission? This process is for flushing Ford Taurus transmissions, I've done this process on a Taurus and it works really nice! FYI - I copied the process from a Ford forum. Here's the easiest and...

    HOW TO: Add Aftermarket Heated Seats [06]

    I finally got around to the final hook-up today. I received a copy of the heated seat wiring diagram for my 06 Liberty but I wasn't able to locate the power feed (RD/WT wire, fuse 30) or the ignition switched feed (GY/PK wire, fuse 25) anywhere under the seats. I checked the harness under...

    HOW TO: Add Aftermarket Heated Seats [06]

    TonyCRD reposted my question in the General Forum and rockymountain sent me the wiring diagram for the factory heated seats. I'm busy at work right now and haven't had a chance to have a look at the Jeep. Hopefully I'll get to it early in the week and I'll post my results. Thanks to...
