    Rear differential skid plate

    They do not. Also, regular Dana 30 is a different pattern from our KJ Dana 30. And they rear axle is most likely the 8.25" Chrysler.

    Intermediate Shaft O-Ring?

    Mine didn't have any o-ring. I'm quite sure the seal in the diff housing seals against the CV axle snout.

    Front end clunk when turning at low speed

    Where the passenger side CV axle plugs into the front diff.

    Front end clunk when turning at low speed

    Check the right side over. Its fairly common for the intermediate shaft interface and bearing to wear out and bang around intermittently.

    SYE or custom driveshaft?

    Tried shimming down the trans crossmember? Its easy to loosen the bolts at the frame and slide 1/4" something in there for a test.

    I have definitely removed that one.

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    IIRC, the damper is a heavy ring on the yoke (not the shaft) and is situated on rubber (not viscous anything). The rubber usually ends up shrinking and ring comes loose. I've lost track of which rear driveshaft is on the KJ (not home to check), but I do know the pinion angle is higher than I...

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    No balancer and I can't measure the angle for 2 weeks. I do know most of the angle is at the fwd end - almost nothing on the rear. I've never been happy with the arrangement (visually) but it also hasn't given me any trouble.

    Looking the upgrade my suspension on 2005 jeep liberty

    No ujoint problem for me there... but my boomerang bushing were over-angled and tore. Using the Durango/Dakota shocks tho (forget which exactly.)

    Water Pump Failure

    The mechanical fan itself probably contributes to the pump wear/death. That is the case for the Ford 7.3L powerstroke also (there's a cast iron pump from a Navistar application that lasts much better). My original KJ pump died abruptly. Gushing coolant and failed bearings. It's replacement...

    Top things to do to improve MPG & engine life?

    Been putting a lot less miles on since covid. Otherwise, it's regimented oil changes, and clean/replace that air filter.

    265 70 R16 Falken Wildpeaks AT/4W on KJ with 2.5-inch lift

    We have 3" lift and 245/75R16 rub at full lock. 1.25" spacers. Not that it's been a problem... just that it does.

    Can I run these on stock ride height

    We have 245/75R16 with 3" lift, wheel spacers , and pinch weld flattened. They still rub at the limits of the steering range.

    Trak Lok LSD at wrecker in Lower Mainland

    I always leave it out. Want all the grip it has left.

    Trak Lok LSD at wrecker in Lower Mainland

    I'm used to yards that won't let you pull a diff apart. A posi on the shelf often fetches as much as whole rear end. Watch the ring gear bolt-hole detail (3/8" vs 10mm), or get the r&p also.

    Trak Lok LSD at wrecker in Lower Mainland

    Careful what you pay for it. If ours came with an open diff, I'd have installed a Lockright.

    Shot intermediate shaft?

    Definitely change those! That's the main cause of the intermediate shaft spline failing. I found plastic ones in mine, and put in the proper roller needle bearing replacements (Spicer).
