Rusted rear frame trailing arm lower control arm repair
So the question is do I find a frame and cut out a section with the trailing arm brackets to swap in or just add bracing scabbed on and then cut out the factory trailing brackets to weld in some new tabs. 3rd option does anyone make replacements like I see everywhere for yhe TJ jeeps?- Jhkj04

Rusted rear frame trailing arm lower control arm repair
Does anyone know the weld on or bolt on part number for replacing the rusted out frame around the trailing arm / lower rear control arm connection? My passenger side rusted out on a trail and we had to limp to a shop and weld some flat plate to get her home. Ended up alittle out of square with...- Jhkj04

Trail Cooling fans HD plus 1.
Had a fun trail weekend with the Liberty and found out I had the smallest cooling package possible and that I need to clean her up before bed after hitting the mud.

Valve cover leak
Follow up- finally I just ordered a set of plastic covers with integrated gaskets and it’s done. Online for $80.

Valve cover leak
Of all the things I’ve done well with this liberty in a year it’s the valve covers I just can’t win. Head gaskets so far so good, lift good but these damn valve covers haunt me. What am I missing? Passenger side I’m on gasket 2 and it was dry for a few months now is leaking again in the back...- Jhkj04
