    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I've been on furlough thanks to the government shutdown, since Friday. Yes, I'm aware the shutdown has ended. There's still backed up paperwork on some minor functionary's desk, preventing funds from beijg released. Thus, furlough.) So, being on furlough, haven't done much of anything but...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    What location, year, model, engine, transmission, rear axle? Basically... Could your question BE more vague?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Got stuck in a parking garage while trying to go to the doctor. Details later. Ironically, I'm here for high BP. This should be fun....

    Nevermind the patches... What's with the erector set there?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    195 honestly doesn't sound terrible. I think mine are hotter than that (granted, in the summer).

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    That would definitely be a balancer. My Jeep has a mass that bolts to the side of the snout of the pinion part of the diff casting... If that makes sense....

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    You're talking about the weight on the snout of the pinion, not the balancer on the motor I assume? That's more accurately known as a tuned mass, if my info is correct. Just to avoid any communication... Can't imagine how a harmonic balancer on the crank would cause this.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Nothing done on the Jeep today, other than discuss it with my favorite, actual, dealership-trained, Jeep mechanic.... Ie, my son. We are both of the mind it's time to start probing with the DMM. Although the factory plug looks fine, it might not be making proper contact on pin 2. Took my...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    You lucky, lucky bastard.... No amount of fiddling has gotten mine working. It's got to the point I'm designing a TC-mounted, electrical, parking brake assembly to be driven off a few relays and a microswitch on the factory brake lever.

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    I am running vicinity of 3 inch lift, no vibrations. Stock arms are gone (factory recall Rev2 lowers due to a recall, Iron Rock Offeoad boomerang due to me getting sick of blowing through the stock bits - I use this as an actual Jeep should be.) I am in need of rear shocks. I need to sit down...

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    I can't speak for the Dakota shocks (but I have about a 3" lift and need rear springs.. Got a part number of year/model to help me out?) but I can jot recommend the Airlift helper air bladders enough. They're about $100, don't require an on board pump (but nice to have) and if you build the...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    So, the Stratus blower motor resistor arrived today. It's presently 39F out... And that is bloody well ARCTIC for coastal SC. But I've been organizing my tools into some good quality tool rolls I found, and they made the job go much easier. Changed out the Four Seasons for the BWD Stratus part...

    I'm a fan of the spline-drive lugnuts, myself. Everything I own has them

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'm afraid I have way too many parts and kits laying around like that... Including a full set of steering abd knuckles for hi-steer on a Dana 44 I want to put under my Tacoma... And several bits and bobs to do a SFA on it....

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    That's how I understand it. At any rate, it was very nice to have heat on the way in to work this morning. So, improving! I suspect I'll be sending this latest unit back to Amazon if the one arriving today for the Stratus gets me all 4 speeds

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    No, it's a Four Seasons unit... Which, oddly enough, doesn't look like the old one. Old one has no markings and no obvious damage. I suspect I am the victim of the old swaperoo. Someone swapped a cheapie for the Four Seasons unit, kept the FS, and returned the cheapie in the Four Seasons box...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    So, I've been lazy. The part arrived 2 or 3 days ago, early. I haven't been bothered to install it, largely due to the weather (unusually cold for this time in SC) and the fact it's a bit difficult to get to that lower bolt. I will grab a small palm ratchet and install it after work.

    Part has arrived a day early, so I will see if it works this evening....

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Four Seasons, a name brand which I've always gotten good life out of.. Wish I'd known about this one.
