No heat Still 2003 liberty 3.7L
Some good ideas here. One thing I didn't see mentioned is how did you fill the cooling system? When I did my radiator in 2016 I had to fill the coolant through the bleeder port on the upper hose otherwise I had air in the system. It does seem like you have air in the system. If all of the other...- eradicator006

Overheated today
For what it's worth, in 2016 I installed a spectra premium rad and it's still going strong to this day. Almost 80,000km. I don't have hd cooling or have even towed anything though. There's an OSC radiator on rock auto that looks interesting. I'm going to have to do some more research on that...- eradicator006

Yet another cooling system thread
Sounds like air in the system and/or a bad thermostat. What I would do is drain the cooling system then replace the thermostat with a mopar then refill the cooling system through that bleeder hole. When I overhauled my cooling system the only way I could get all the air out was to fill through...- eradicator006

Possible engine swap on 05 liberty renegade
I don't think a 42rle could handle the 4.7l. Putting a 45rfe in to your 2005 would be too much hassle if at all possible. Easiest would be swapping to a manual transmission. I have no idea if that could be done. I've never heard of anybody going from auto to manual.- eradicator006

Replacing radiator
Does a new mopar rad come with those soft rubber air curtain things? Those went in the garbage along with my old rad. So far I haven't had any issues without them but they must be there for a reason.- eradicator006

Replacing radiator
I'm in Canada and the dealer here quoted me mid $500's plus tax...which would be $600. I just looked on rockauto and they have an oem for $219 CAD. That's what I paid for my aftermarket. Since when did rockauto sell mopar parts? This wasn't on there a couple of years ago. Time to order...- eradicator006

Replacing radiator
I had to replace mine almost 2 years ago. It's super easy if you don't have hd cooling. I went with an aftermarket radiator and so far it's been ok. I couldn't afford $600 for OEM at the time. If you can go mopar, do it. I've read so many stories of aftermarket being bad. Some tips: 1...- eradicator006

wrong rad cap
Several years ago I had to replace my radiator cap because it would make a PFFFFFTT noise when I would take a right turn. I went to the part store and picked up a new one. The box says ST16 on it. It's a safety release 16 psi. Today I wanted to test my anti-freeze and I was looking at the...- eradicator006

Have to fill gas slowly
I think I fixed the slow full problem. I haven't put gas in my Jeep since January and I need some today. Prior to filling up I took my small plumber snake and pushed it down the full tube. I didn't encounter any resistance but after doing that I was able to fill the tank at full speed. Sent...- eradicator006

Leaky power steering hose
The power steering hose on mine has been wet since the day I got it in 2008. I haven't had to top of the fluid. If yours is losing enough fluid to require a top up then I would look in to fixing it properly. I wouldn't trust any additive.- eradicator006

I have to kiss her goodbye!!
Yes we do, especially if the vehicle is 10 years older or more. They don't want vehicles older than 10 years on the road so they do what they can to write it off. Recently someone I know had a 2002 Lincoln town car and they rolled in to a newer f150 at a stop light. Supposedly $19,000 in...- eradicator006

Have to fill gas slowly
I'm not seeing any physical kinks in the hoses so I am thinking the roll over valve is partially stuck restricting fuel flow in to the tank. I'm going to try some lucas fuel treatment and see what happens.- eradicator006
