    Another A/C question

    If I were replacing a compressor, I would also replace the accumulator and flush the entire system. You can rent the flush kit from autozone, I use denatured alcohol to flush it. Then I would add the exact amount of oil that the FSM calls for into each component. Otherwise, its just a guess on...

    Curved Clutch Flywheel for CRD Only?

    I know TJKJ use to always say you cannot get the flywheel machined on a gasser with a manual ****** b/c its curved.

    Brake bleeding

    Speaking of the press and hold method, TJKJ use to say that you shouldn't press the brake pedal down further than it would normally travel. No idea if it will cause an issue, but the theory is it will damage the seal in the master cylinder since there is typically a ridge in the bore where the...

    Jeep overheats only when A/C is on, cant figure out why

    I'd still keep an eye on it, 237F is a bit too high. What brand is the pump you took off?

    Coolant water in 3rd chamber in coolant tank

    There was a post on this recently, the tank was leaking internally. New MOPAR tank fixed the issue.

    Rear door won't stay closed

    Illegal? It may be, but so is going over the speed limit. Do you have any friends that are handy? Swapping out the latch isn't terribly difficult.

    Unleaded 88 safe?

    Everything here has 'up to 10%.' Been that way for many years. I've never seen 88 octane though. We have 87, 91, and 93. I'll use 93 when towing for obvious reasons.

    Iron Rock Rear A-arm

    Laziness is the only reason. Its seamless, but Ive not really taken the Jeep offroad since installing it so I cant comment on how useful it is.

    Jeep overheats only when A/C is on, cant figure out why

    Does your Jeep have a small or large fan shroud? If it has a large fan shroud, you will not be able to touch the oil filter from the top side. For some reason, most 04's already came with the bigger fan shroud, so all I had to do was add the clutch and fan, very easy. I most recently found out...

    2002 KJ Limited V6 - coolant expansion tank

    Very nice! To answer your question, yes, its normal for coolant to immediately flow out of that hose. While the bleed screw is needed on other configurations, its not as important on your Jeep b/c of that hose. It will immediately allow any trapped air to escape into the overflow tank. Its a...

    Iron Rock Rear A-arm

    Mistake I think I made, the instructions said to coat the adjuster in anti-seize, so I did... Thinking I should've used locktite now...

    Jeep overheats only when A/C is on, cant figure out why

    I'm not sure how the 05 Libertys work, but I know my 04 just has low & hi speed fan relays that are controlled by the PCM, very simple. Certain year liberty's (02-some 03's?) had a solid state relay under the battery. I'm not sure when the high speed kicks on (I want to say 230F) but I know my...

    Iron Rock Rear A-arm

    Heads up, thats a big ol nut. I used a pipe wrench to tighten it the first time and it loosened up... So I used a pipe wrench to tighten it up again... Seemed like a good idea. If it loosens up again, Im going to make a wrench from a scrap piece of steel I have and use a hammer to tighten it up.

    Jeep overheats only when A/C is on, cant figure out why

    Overheating at low speeds is typically an air flow issue. Do you know if it has a two speed fan? Is the high speed working?

    Brake grabbing

    When this happens, if you stop and jack up the Jeep, is the wheel with smoking brakes still hard to turn? If so, what happens if you loosen the bleeder screw? Is it still hard to turn? If so, you simply have a bad caliper (again). If it loosens up, you have something upstream causing the issue.

    Time for 4.10 gears!

    All seems well. Wish I could've done it 15 years ago, but I didn't really have the tools or the know how. Its recommended for the new gears, not the TT. FYI, if anyone is wanting some front 4.10 gears, there is a set on ebay. Offer them $300 and I bet they will take it. I already have an...

    Best aftermarket radiator

    Must have been replaced at some point in the past.

    03 Liberty worth saving?

    Only you can answer that. If you have no reason other than needing the Jeep to drive, it may be time to let it go. I enjoy my Jeeps, so the cost of keeping them going is null and void for me.
