    Rear Cargo cover

    I have an idea. Get two dowels that fit into the holes where the stock OEM cargo covers insert into. Then get some "lycra" type of stretchy material and use staples and attached it so you scroll and unscroll the cover as needed. It won't retract like the OEM, but it might work. Or maybe buy a...

    Rear Cargo cover

    It keeps cargo off the deck and allows long items to lay down. When I need to spread out it allows for down time when it is wet outside or for the canine to lay down.

    Rear Cargo cover

    I bought a storage rack from 4WP that replaced the storage cover. When I bought the 2003 Liberty in Nov 2020 it did not have a storage cover so I kept looking and found a rack made by TOMKEN sold thru 4WP. The part number is TMC-0140-R and is made of steel and powder coated. I tie wrapped some...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I put in new front Jounce Bumpers. It looks like I replaced the originals on my 2003 Libby. One was gone and the other one fell out when I touched it. The rear ones should be replaced soon. Also, I put in new thrid brake light. The old one was barely visible when lit. Also, I decided to...

    That'll do Jeep

    Ah! Okay! I have a 2003 Limited and the hole to hole center is about 7" and the ball has a 2" drop. I did not know there was a recall at some point. I can only assume this one may have been ordered or the previous owner may have opted for the shorter hitch and drop. Thx for the info.

    That'll do Jeep

    What ****** do you have? How is your hitch connected to the trailer? Does it have an extender or does the trailer tongue tuck underneath the spare tire for easy fit? I have a 2003 with 114000 miles in excellent condition with the 45RFE ******. I got it used in Nov 2020 with 94000 miles on it...

    KJ Low profile roof cross bars w/basket

    I used the pipes from Farmtek as you suggested and then tried to find a low profile flat rack. That works best for my needs and will allow me to park the jeep in the garage. Anyway this is what I finally came up with and did the install over the weekend. The one thing is that I need to stop...

    KJ Low profile roof cross bars w/basket

    I went ahead and ordered the clamps and pipe from Farmtek after looking around to see if anything is local. I have not decided on the roof rack just yet but will look at a ~ 40" x 40" size with low or non-existent side height. I just need the area behind the sunroof for storage and with no over...

    KJ Low profile roof cross bars w/basket

    I like that! Can you describe or point me to a list of components or? I can give it a try. What I am trying to do is put a rack roof up to hold the spare tire for those times that I want to put on a tow point basket. Tow point baskets just do not fit on the KJ's and still allow the back...

    KJ Low profile roof cross bars w/basket

    I am looking for low profile roof cross bars for my stock 2003 KJ roof rails. The OEM rails are fine but I need low profile cross bars that are even on their top so that I can place a cage/basket on top. The OEM rails are sloped but most cross bars would allow for an uneven installation on...

    New lifters/rockers installed?

    Yeah, I am familiar with what to look for but I am not interested in opening up a leak free valve cover. My luck, they would leak when I re-installed just to get a looksee. Anyway I have no reason to suspect any issues based upon the history of the vehicle and the places it was driven. It has...

    New lifters/rockers installed?

    Unless I open the valve covers and look at the rockers and lifters to see if they are the original or have been replaced with the upgraded rockers/newer lifters? Correct???

    New lifters/rockers installed?

    Is there a non-intrusive method to check if my 03 limited 3.7L has new lifters installed? Do I have to do a physical inspection by opening the valve covers? This Jeep is in great condition and when I bought it two years ago it leaked oil and I replaced the pvc hoses and breather tubes and...

    Posting intro to the group

    Hello, I’m from VA and purchased a 2003 Liberty Limited in Nov 2020 with 94500 miles. I connected to a general Jeep website but now I am connecting to the KJ forum. How I got here: Nov 2020 I totaled my 1999 van on a deer hit. I went looking for used and drove by the car lot and saw the...
