    04 Liberty Rear Diff

    Funny, I just took my 04 into a ****** shop today for what I thought was too much backlash. Mine is a manual and you can hear what sounds like too much backlash. I got a call from the ****** shop a few hours last. They said, yes there is a bit too much backlash but for the cost to fix is...

    Tires too big?

    I bought a 04 Liberty half way into last winter. It's a 3.7 five speed manual. It's been the most gutless thing I have ever bought. I once tried out a 3.7 stick Dakota and it ran *almost* like a V8. I *think* I may have located my problem. The tires on it are 235/70 16". The door...

    battery light on?!

    More than likely your battery is bad.. My 04's Liberty factory battery went dead as a door nail while I was in a coffee shop. Ever after I had the Jeep jumped started, it went less than a mile and the engine went dead in the middle of the road. I replaced the battery and all was ok. The...

    Failed emissions

    lol, TruLiberty, if I had your troubles I think I'd get a bike. You, Virginia and your Liberty are having a BAD day/s.

    Magnaflow Exhaust

    You'll be sorry you ever put one on, blue kjR417. The drown you'll hear in the cab will drive you nuts. It will sound OK but NOT like a V8 on the outside. The 3.7L V6 does NOT make a powerfull sound in the first place like a V8. Just a friendly warning...

    Transmission cooler, Need or not?

    I once seen a ****** cooler set up with a bypass valve installed. The cooler was bypassed during winter months if no heavy loads were going to be pulled.

    4-cyl aviable what years?

    I wish Jeep would trash the 3.7L. There has gotta be a better V6 that Jeep could offer. I'd love to see a cast iron 4cyl offered also..

    Rear end back lash

    My 04 Liberty has the 5 speed manual ******. I notice a lot (at least to me) of rear end back lash between 1st and 2nd gear. I thought at first my emg brake might be sticking and that was causing the problem. I might also add that the 04 has four wheel disc brakes. I took the Jeep to a...

    RPM at 65

    It puzzles me why one 3.7L engine will get 16 and another 22 MPG. Is there that big of a difference on the gearing you can order on a Liberty? My 04 is a manual ****** and no factory tow package. I got a combo of 15 MPG pulling a heavy pop-up camper to the U.P. of MI, staying a week and...

    CB Install

    I'm a Ham Radio operator and I just installed a two meter radio in my 04. I installed a through the roof 1/4 wave antenna. That was the easy part. Finding a spot for the rig was another story. I ended up mounting it on the drivers side lower right above the gas peddle. The rig is much...

    resse hitch class III

    I put one on my 04, liberty84. Got it from JC Whitney. It bolted right up where a factory one would have gone. Seems I even paid less than Wal-Mart also. Don't forget the plug and play trailor plug also... Very easy to install and JCW also has those...

    Call me stupid but.................

    What is the difference between a KJ and a KK Liberty? I bought a 04 Liberty, my first Liberty. The title says nothing about KJ or KK. There is nothing on the side of the Liberty like Sport or anything like that. It's a Liberty with the disapointing 3.7 V6 and five speed manual trans. No...
