    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Unloaded a bunch of boxes for an up-coming move. Also trying to decide where to put my new memento after being ducked last night at work.

    Need help removing front bumper on 2002 KJ

Removed the grille facade, rivets towards the bottom of the grille/top of the bumper cover, front 4 rivets in the wheel well area for the liner, the bolts for the air damn under the bumper, the rivets just below and to the side of the head lights, front marker lights/turn signals. This...

    Need help removing front bumper on 2002 KJ

    What I have - 2002 Liberty KJ Limited. What I'm trying to do - Remove my front bumper cover in order to install a set of OEM tow hooks with the "W"-ish upper bracket/bolts (not the skinny ones, the flat ones with the angled "wings" on the ends). Where I'm having trouble - After reviewing...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Attempted to remove the front bumper so I can install my OEM two hooks. Looked at and followed almost every How-To and video I could find over the course of the past year. After an unsuccessful hour of trying to find anything on the 2002 KJ fronts I re-installed everything I had removed and...

    Aloha from Iowa

    Your "Honestly Brutal Review #5 Maxxhaul 46" Class Basket Style Roof Rack and Unbranded Crossbars" was actually a deciding factor in my getting the bars I have and that basket is on my To-Do list. Given the amount of cargo space in my KJ vs my TJ I"m wasn't 100% sure on whether or not I even...

    Tow hook hardware?

    If I understand correctly, you're looking for these: https://www.carid.com/jeep-oe/front-tow-hook-stud-mpn-52059352ab.html From what I gather reading the various threads on here over the past year, the U-bolts/M-bolts are not recommended. You will also need the "clip" that goes off to the...

    What Do You Regret Buying?

    Seat covers. I regret my current seat covers. Unfortunately the company I prefer doesn't make them for Liberty's (just Wranglers and Gladiators). Hoping to eventually find some heavy duty ones that will fit...or check into the feasibility of installing Wrangler ones. I don't like generic...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Taking the KJ into the local dealership/shop to get the last 2 outstanding recalls taken care of. After 3 weeks they finally got in an airbag and a hitch mount (mixed feelings on that one). Slightly nervous about potentially leaving the KJ over night, will be the longest I've ever gone without...

    Aloha from Iowa

    Hi! I used the Firestik from my TJ (looks like a CB antenna but is turned for AM/FM) with one of their M-2 side mount kits to locate it towards the lower rear corner of the passenger side rear window. Local audio shop took care of routing the cables for me (I'm not used to working on a Jeep...

    Aloha from Iowa

    Long time Jeep owner (1967 CJ, 1997 TJ, now 2002 KJ), long time lurker here, finally got time to introduce myself (also creator of long sentences). Over the past year I have found a lot of helpful and useful information on this site. Current Jeep is a 2002 Liberty KJ Limited that I purchased...
