    When I ordered the passenger side axle stub, it had actually ejected itself from the package at some point in transit. So at least you got the part? :D

    No Start, Key Won’t Turn Far Enough

    Update… You know that button by the ignition that you have to press to turn your key to remove? Well, it self disabled itself the other day. Something broke, and now I don’t have to press it anymore ‍♂️

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    It sure did! I have a steel trailer with a fold up ramp, but the grates are spaced out a lot more. It pulls very easily. I actually towed my old XJ on a dolly with my Liberty a few years ago. I got like 14.5mpg out of the deal ‍♂️

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I towed an empty trailer to our deer camp this weekend to bring a brush mower back for my uncle. It was one of those aluminum trailers with the fold up ramp that catches wind like a sail. I couldn’t touch 6th gear with the head wind, but it was fine once I turned north. Today, I came back with...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I went on a grocery run yesterday. When I went to fire up the engine, it fired, stumbled, and died… It’s not the first time it’s happened, but it’s been frequent with the warmer temps we’ve had this week.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I miss my XJ’s so much. The Liberty definitely has better road manners, and mine’s been better for winter roads than my previous Cherokees, but I also went from an old every option Laredo XJ to a plain Sport KJ… Not much new on the Liberty. I’ve just been driving to and from work. It’ll be...

    I especially love the ones who honk as I'm pushing the clutch in to take off. That's when I unlock the true slowness of the 3.7 :D

    Are they not on Rock Auto?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I almost got rear ended while shifting from first to second gear… Again. It happens a couple times a month. I’ll just have to start ripping into second I guess ‍♂️

    308 and 300blk. That’s what I had enough ammo for.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I drove it to the range and sighted in some deer rifles. The heat is going full bore now!

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I use the same oil and filter. On my last change, I added some of the new Lucas low viscosity additive. It ran with less ticking, but the knock, of course, is there to stay. I just pretend I’m back in my old Cherokees and pretend the knock is harmless.

    Gotta love road salt! I got it all apart, now I’m just taking a break with the pooch before tossing it all back together.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Jeep’s going under the knife tomorrow. I got the tie rod ends for the passenger side to do, and I’ll poke around at a few other things throughout the day.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Speaking of rustoleum, I’ll be doing some rust removal after this winter. I have some bubbles coming through the doors. It won’t be kosher. It may entail spray foam, if it’s bad enough. If not, just fiberglass and bondo. No shame, here.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I tried using a coupon there once that said “online only” in fine print. The manager wouldn’t even come down to the checkouts. I buy my red flavored tools at another store, now.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Open the fill hole, then open the drain plug. Once it’s empty enough, put the drain plug back in. I use a hand pump that screws right on the oil bottle. It looks like a soap pump. If auto stores don’t have them, look into boating supplies. They’re popular for filling the lower units on the motors.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I found a bad tie rod end. The tie rod’s so rusty, I’ll probably just order the whole works.
