My rear springs on the 2002 kj keep popping off when I'm fully flexed out. I'll post pics below. What can I do to fix this issue . Thanks everyone.
Stock shocks would limit travel. Extended shocks may do what OP is experiencing. I'm running 4runner coils... they are longer, but not stiffer.- u2slow

2" Spacer Lift, TPMS ??
Can't imagine how 2" of lift can mess with TPMS... think you have an odd coincidence going on. Who did the install? Was the battery disconnected? No TPMS on our '05, so do not have experience with it.- u2slow

2004 KJ radiator replacement - no side/circular bushings to swap out?
Quite sure I had to swap them over from the old rad. I also seem to recall seeing these bushings on other Chrysler products - can't be too hard to source.- u2slow

Rear suspension or axle clunk when getting on or off the gas.
No they weren't. I think that's the very last time I bought a Moog bushing or joint.- u2slow

Rear suspension or axle clunk when getting on or off the gas.
My invoice from 2016 says I ordered 2 units. Don't recall having any extras. Good luck- u2slow

Rear suspension or axle clunk when getting on or off the gas.
Each. One per box. I will never buy them again. I got a whole arm from rockauto for $74. Amazon wasn't far off that price either.- u2slow

Moog K200428 Mine were from rockauto, and they still have them.- u2slow

Rear suspension or axle clunk when getting on or off the gas.
Upper arm bushings. They tear. Best viewed when not jacked up. It is very difficult to remove the OEM bushings without stretching the holes (then new bushings won't stay in place.) As careful as I was, still had to tack-weld the new Moog ones in. They didn't last long either, so I swapped over...- u2slow

265/75R16
265 wide tires came factory on many 16x7" wheels - just not jeeps. Chevy and Ford trucks come to mind. Edit: I run 285/75R16 on 16x7 wheels with acceptable results and wear. (3/4 and 1ton pickup).- u2slow

Suggestions for A/C clutch?
The swapped-over front clutch plate seemed to work initially, but 2-3hrs down the highway it was smoking and subsequently killed the front bearing on the compressor.- u2slow

Suggestions for A/C clutch?
I had the front clutch plate off in that time. Changing that alone backfired on my first road trip.- u2slow

Jeep Liberty Brake and Rotor Question
I only change the minimum parts each time. Usually the sliders get stiff, and/or a pad decides to f*** off at around 50% because it rusts off the backing plate. Sticking calipers and weeping hoses I just deal with as they come up.- u2slow

Suggestions for A/C clutch?
Get the whole compressor. I looked at changing just the clutch, but it's not standalone/separable from the compressor in the same manner as old ones used to be .- u2slow

What parts do I need to add factory cruise control?
There used to be full kits on eBay compromised of OE parts. That's how I got mine. Worth a check anyway.- u2slow

Rear Upper Control Arm (Boomerang)
You would want to check if there's room for it at stock height. Seems like the joint on top of the diff stands taller.- u2slow

Rear Upper Control Arm (Boomerang)
I don't know what the big deal is changing a $100 boomerang every 5-7 years. I don't recommend renewing the bushings or balljoint. It costs almost as much, and odds are you stretch the holes on removal, if it's not already rusted so far it crumbles. The dealer changed our lower control arms...- u2slow

Blown OME - Moving to Bilsteins
I have the Ranchos 5000's on the front with CRD coils. Rears are load-assist shocks (Monroe?) for a Durango.- u2slow

Rear Upper Control Arm (Boomerang)
If you are lifted, you are most likely over-angling the joint and bushings. Mine have lasted well over 2 years.... More like 5-7. Rebushed the original, swapped to another used one later. Have a new spare on my shelf. Zero failures on that balljoint. JBA makes (or used to make) a tri-link...- u2slow
