2009 KK Passenger Rocker Sill Removal Question
My daughter ran over something in her 2009 KK AKA “Quackers”. The rear of the passenger rocker sill/cover got busted off along with a piece of the wheel well liner where it attached. How do you remove the plastic sill/cover? Does it just clip on? I want to replace the broken parts. Thanks...- Hec In Omaha

What did you do to your jeep today?
Did an oil change and filter on our 2009 KK (AKA Quakers). It’s got 137,736 miles on it and purrs like a kitten. I decided to use Valvoline Max life High Mileage Full Synthetic 5W-30 this time around. It had never seen anything but 5W-20 its whole life till now. Hec- Hec In Omaha

I hear ya! I have a 10 circuit transfer switch. It allows my generator to power eight 110V circuits and one 220V circuit. I have a 4500W generator that is nice and quiet. Here in Omaha we only received 1-2” of snow. We dodged a bullet with winter storm Fern! Stay safe! Hec- Hec In Omaha

jeep kk heater hoses
Our 2009 KK had its heater hoses stuck to the connections as well. I used the larger hose grip tool (see link below) and grabbed the hose right at the connection and gave it a twist. It easily did the trick. Don't try and use regular pliers as you could crush or damage the heater core...- Hec In Omaha

I only get heat out of one vent on the dashboard.
With the engine cold swap the heater hoses that connect to the heater core on the fire wall. Right (Supply)hose to left (return) connection and left (return)hose to right (supply)connection. Drive it like that for a couple of weeks. This will push out the debris clogging up the heater core...- Hec In Omaha

Heater core inlet filter installed.
I found it on Ebay. See link below. https://ebay.us/m/LGg4Yd BTW, I did a complete coolant flush last fall using a Prestone coolant system flush kit. I managed to capture about 1/2 a teaspoon of debris during the coolant flush. The debris captured can best be described as casting sand...- Hec In Omaha

Heater core inlet filter installed.
Howdy All, A couple of weeks ago I noticed my Daughters 2009 KK AKA ”Quackers” was loosing heat at the heater vents. I fixed this once before by flushing and reverse flushing the heater core 2 years ago. This time I reversed the heater hoses and let her drive it like that for two weeks. Her...- Hec In Omaha

Today I did some maintenance on Quackers my daughter’s 2009 KK Rocky Mountain edition. I added 505 CRO to the oil and drove it around for 15 mins then changed the oil and filter. This the second 505 CRO treatment I have done. I also added a bottle of the 605 CRF Fuel treatment to a full...- Hec In Omaha

Remove Rear Sway Bar to Change Differential Fluid?
I did the rear diff oil change on our 2009 KK. You can get the cover on and off by carefully sneaking it past the sway bar. While the cover is off, I used two cans of brake cleaner and cleaned all the moving parts inside Then I took clean rags to mop up what may have dropped down below due to...- Hec In Omaha

What did you do to your jeep today?
Yesterday my neighbor gave me an OEM Jeep Liberty tent. His wife used to own a Liberty and they never used it. They picked up years ago at a garage sale. The carrying bag says Jeep and the Zipper on the storage bag is broke. I haven't unpacked it to see what's inside. Hec- Hec In Omaha

What did you do to your jeep today?
She was approaching an intersection and the light that flashes yellow to warn you that signal light will be changing soon was already flashing. Instead of slowing down for the stop she thought it would be a good idea to give it gas while the signal was still yellow and beat the red light...- Hec In Omaha

Today I rode shotgun with my 16 yr old daughter as she drove to her soccer practice in Quackers our 2009 KK. I may have left my fingerprints indented on the oh sh*t bar as she almost blew through a red light! Then I ran it through the car wash while she was at practice.- Hec In Omaha

2002 jeep liberty 3.7 limited burning oil
If you suspect an oil leak I suggest that you perform a U.V. Dye Test. This involves adding a U.V. Dye to your oil and driving it around a bit. Then using the supplied yellow lens glasses any oil leak will show up greenish yellow when you flash a light on it. This will pin point the source of...- Hec In Omaha
