I have never , and I mean never, had any drilled/slotted rotor on any of my vehicles warp from heat like my vehicles that were not drilled/slotted, and this is why I have been using them for ages now. But thats ok, I will go tell my Silverado 3500HD that it should go ahead and warp, because of...

I use slotted drilled rotors on every vehicle I own because I can't stand heat warping. I have yet to have an issue with "less" material and I have even pulled heavy trailers loaded with rock and concrete. There is a difference between theories and realities

I bought a kit off Amazon called Max KT010733, they came from Canada. It was a complete kit of 4 slotted and drilled rotors with ceramic pads for all wheels, I was very impressed with it. No more pulsating pedal and I had to get on them really ******* a trip to Atlanta with zero issues. They...

I love running across deals like these. I myself picked up an 03 Liberty on a local swap site with a rod knock. I talked them down to $300 (from $1000 lol). I drove it home with all the neighbors hearing me from a mile away. I found a 3.7 up north in a wrecked libby, it cost $500. Then I...

I see used transmissions on craigslist and other sites all the time around here for libbies. Usually out of Liberties that the motor is blown. Sometimes as cheap as $250. I think I'd go that route and put it in myself or have it done. I don't know how you feel about used stuff though. I...

I am only assuming that when it comes time for me to do my swap, that I am probably going to have to put the bearing in the crank since I am going backwards in years?? Another thing I am still not really clear on, is the EGR controlled by the pcm? If I bypass the egr with a blocking plate, is...

I was not sure if I blocked the EGR off if that would screw with the computer or not, I was thinking perhaps it was programmed to look for the EGR and if it didn't have one, cause me issues. I was going to do the short block myself,,,,,, well, measure the bearing clearance and have the machine...

Thanks a lot Bob. I didn't ask about the torque converter because it was a new issue I found shortly after I made that post! I appreciate the well written write up and the responses

I think this is fixed On my way to church this morning it was surging worse than ever. And behold, the check engine light came on. I stopped my Oreillys and ran the code, it showed #4 cylinder misfire,,,,,,, 4 times. I went ahead and bought a Borg Warner coil pack, it was only $26. I figured if...

I have scoured the net trying to find these answers first, but I have a couple questions that are still unclear to me before I dive in to this project. I have a 3.7 core motor out of an 03 Liberty with a rod knock that is going to be given to me. I wanted to make a summer project out of it by...

This explains why I could not find a tps online lol. So back to the drawing board. Should I just ride with my autolights for awhile? crap

Also, just for informational purposes. An update to what I have done. This morning I bought a can of throttle cleaner, and cleaned the hell out of my throttle body. I also ran a bottle of berrymans chemtool in the gas tank, and ran a can of sea foam through the intake. (I am partial to...

I am thinking so also. Could I just settle for an auto zone tps, or do you guys think I should spring for a mopar? Has anyone had any luck with the cheap ones? I hate to spend a lot when I am kind of guessing and assuming

And what about the EGR? The older motor does not have one but his newer liberty will require it?

I have a question, if anyone is still monitoring this thread. I have a junk motor out of an 03 with a rod knock. I would like to rebuild it and put it in my 07 some day when my 07 wears completely out. Just for a hobby. So basically I am going backwards from this thread, and putting an older...
