    What did you do to your jeep today?

    This is for the KK but should be similar for you if you have the 42RLE. If you hit the transmission pan with a temperature gun, you can calculate what the level should be. There is some wiggle room around the line where you can still be fine.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Can a bad intermediate shaft sound like a clunking under your feet as the Jeep goes over uneven roads? This noise started recently and is getting worse. I have eliminated a number of other things and am still stumped. - All new OME springs & Bilstein struts this summer - All new front...

    Liberty or Rubicon? Too bad either way. Sorry to hear.

    New to the Liberty -- how many miles can I expect

    Got pics from Black Bear Pass? (taken by your passenger and hopefully not you!) :p

    Engine light is on with code P0700 and P0740 TCC issue

    It does! You won’t be disappointed. I think it’s great.

    Engine light is on with code P0700 and P0740 TCC issue

    Since Traction Control is based on differences in wheel speed, I would be trying to read the wheel speed sensor data from all four wheels. Going straight, all four should be the same. Turning left, the right side tires will spin slightly faster. If a wheel speed sensor is reading out of sync...

    Liberty Jet 2012 Starting Issue, please help

    On my 07 Commander it was the actuator wire going to the starter. It was basically a slide-on to the metal tab type of connector (spade connector?). The metal tab was on the starter, and the wire connector was yellow. The connection point became rusty, so there was nothing when I tried to start...

    Mystery Wheel Speed Sensors

    That is a KK sensor. I replaced one of mine earlier this summer.

    Engine light is on with code P0700 and P0740 TCC issue

    I have an auxiliary transmission cooler on the front of my radiator that I added because I tow a lot. I can say that with the cooler, I see 125°F on the interstate highway (145 when towing), 165°F in mixed driving (185 when towing), and sometimes 220°F climbing a mountain on a forest road on a...

    KK Tranny

    No, unfortunately. The KK has a VLP (variable line pressure) feature in the transmission that the earlier 42RLE’s didn’t have. Thus, it has extra electrical connectors on it and probably isn’t backwards compatible. Look for a non-VLP 42RLE from before 2006 if I remember correctly. Hope this helps.

    Rebuilding my Adjust a Struts

    Making progress! It is interesting to hear how things evolved with JBA’s lifts over the years. Mine were most definitely Bilsteins but from 2010/11. Way to not give up on this complicated project!

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Not that I know of. These round ones are here because the original Mopar arms rusted through. They probably did need a recall!

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Yes, sorry this is a KK. No upper boomerang.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Moog I think, although maybe not. The Mopar arms are rectangular in cross section.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    New tie rods on, aligned, and new rear shocks on. Wallet lighter. The clunk in the back that I thought was the shocks is still there! Looking at things again today I notice that the drivers upper control arm seems to have slipped inboard on the bushing sleeve. I didn’t know this could even...

    2012 Jeep Liberty Limited (Jet?)

    The sky slider panoramic sunroof is canvas. I would avoid one with that feature because people say it’s loud on the highway, it leaks, and when it jams and breaks you can’t get replacement parts to fix it. Be sure to check for water damage and test it out mechanically. Under 100k miles is...

    fuse diagram 08 liberty

    The fuse box on the KK is called the TIPM or totally integrated power module. It is half fuse box and half body control module, all in one. For that reason, it does have to be programmed to your VIN. You might get lucky at the junkyard if installing one from a KK with exactly the same options...
