Those seemed to have the best balance of ratings/performance/reviews from what I read online, but most of that does not include the real world experience people have here, so I'm not opposed to other ideas that don't require modifications or a radically different budget.

I have a 2005 Liberty with stock suspension and am about to replace the tires. I'd like to get something with decent on-road performance and at least modestly good off-road capability for the 3-4 times a year I manage to get out to the desert in the southwest. I'm replacing some Goodyear...

Adding a follow-up here. I did swap the TCM/PCM and there was no improvement. Returned that unit. It turns out the torque converter was trashed even though there were no metal filings in the transmission pan, so I had a transmission rebuild done, and all is well.

Thanks to all. Very helpful.

I noticed today I needed to top off my coolant in the expansion tank. I replaced the radiator last year (the previous owner had the wrong kind of coolant in it, and it all got trashed). I don't seem to have any leaks that are noticeable, but I did notice that the coolant expansion tank cap was...

My 05 TPM modules seem to have died on everything but the spare, so the EVIC always warns me that the tires are low (which they are not), and the tire pressure light on the dash is on permanently. Is there any way to disable this warning and light, given they are no longer providing useful...

I've been having what I thought was transmission problems--once warmed up, my 2005 KJ slips out of gear at intersections and then can lurch into gear, sometimes causing a stall. And on a recent road trip it suddenly would not shift above second on the highway. I hooked up a diagnostic tool and...

Thanks. I will try that.

Yeah, I guess I screwed up on the plugs because all the posts on this and other boards from 10 years ago (and I mean a LOT of them) were saying the Autolite Double Platinums were the consensus choice. I did not notice the last five pages of this thread until after I did the job (my browser was...

I know this is an ancient thread and the original poster may not even be on the board anymore, but thank you to everyone who contributed to this conversation. It gave me the confidence to change out the plugs myself on the '05 Liberty I recently acquired. It has 125K miles, and I think they...
