    What did you do to your jeep today?

    For many of us, that's the real benefit of AC, that's why if you've got a working system (in my experience in vehicles of this age, that's unlikely) there are only the occasional really cold mornings when you'd turn it off.

    What color paint for 2006 Liberty OEM steel rims?

    I though "wheel silver" was a generic colour - but I do like seafish's idea.

    Engine Swap

    Actually it's easier (no - make that less difficult) to fit a Lexus V8, if you must have that hypnotic exhaust note - or really enjoy a challenge. The V6 doesn't exactly sparkle, but it more than adequate to haul a little ol' KJ around. Oh, & that 4.7 is best avoided in any installation, I had...

    Hello!

    Given the care lavished on its cooling system by your brother, I'd suggest you don't take the chance & go through the whole flush & refill procedure, as often as it takes, as a matter of course.

    Driver Side Turn Signal & Running Light Prob

    Do I correctly understand that the turn signal only doesn't work when the headlights are on, which is what OP suggests? In which case, it's not as simple as a bad ground.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    No. I'm a bit lost on the "lost shape" bit but that wheel does look to be at an odd angle - in 2 planes. However, that tyre shows no abnormal wear pattern, which I'd expect with any alignment, & some worn component, issues. Love seafish's suggestion, oh my, how the other half live! We don't...

    06 kj rear brake lights issue

    While it's unlikely that both will fail simultaneously just think about all those vehicles you see with only one brake light - guaranteed the owner/driver won't know 'til the 2nd one goes out.

    Brake Light stuck on. Help

    I really don't understand the diagnostics (but that might just be me. I'm surprised KJ's have hydraulic brakelight switches but even more so that it's mounted on the MC. Never known a switch to fail "on", my 1st suspect for that fault would be the parking brake switch being stuck.

    I think that also describes the spare on '96 XJ

    06 kj rear brake lights issue

    Yes they are twin filament bulbs, so it could well be tat only the higher wattage filament has failed. From memory, the other rear bulbs are too, although only one is used, so swap one gf those for the brake/tail & see what happens. The sockets on KJ's are infamous for getting hot, distorting...

    Help! My 03 Jeep Liberty’s battery died and Sepentine belt came off.

    I wouldn't expect any main dealer to have any parts for anything over 5 years old, or any interest in or knowledge of, them - unless they have a rip-off "classic" parts program. There are, however, a couple of reliable independent parts places in the UK - & several places, particularly, in...

    Help! My 03 Jeep Liberty’s battery died and Sepentine belt came off.

    Like he said, all good sound advice. Good luck. Oh, & serpentine belts don't like stuck idler pulleys (the little ones that appear to be just bolted to the front of the engine) so pay particular attention to them.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    As of last weekend, when the running XJ decided it wouldn't go backwards anymore (made a Devon lane more interesting than usual when rounding a bend, further down the hill, there's a tree across the road) none of mine work (KJ's brake job's been on hold for a few months now) - so I'm reduced to...

    Result! - but don't fancy your chances removing the old filter.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'd hate to be stuck behind you in traffic on a dark, wet night.
