    Wife's '12 KK fan selector stuck on defrost

    I wonder if spraying the plastic gears with lithium grease once a year would make any difference. But yeah, I think Reni is right that it’s a little of both. The hot/cold cycling is probably wearing out the plastic and makes it brittle.

    Nice! Glad you got the ABS gremlins figured out. Post a pic or two of the KK as it sits now. I would love to see those wheels.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Every once in a while my workshop reaches a stage where the level of chaos crosses an invisible line, and the space must be tidied before anything else can happen! I try to keep it reasonable and put tools back where they go on a regular basis, but the tornado of cleaning has to happen...

    DIY LiFePO4 Battery for Jeepy

    I think I am coming out pretty well on cost. Something like an Ecoflow or a Jackery can be pricey. For size comparison, my battery has about 1000 watt hours (a tad less; 74 amp hours x 13.2 volts nominal = 976.8 watt hours). The four 74 Ah battery cells and the 100 Amp BMS came from Battery...

    DIY LiFePO4 Battery for Jeepy

    Working on a cool project for the KK. I built a trunk box with a tool drawer back in 2014, and it has some additional space behind the rear seats for a washer fluid bottle and some picnic blankets. It started out as a drawing and ended up being made out of wood. The trunk, measured very...

    O2 Fault Codes

    Yes I think if your O2 sensor is sending the wrong reading to the ECM, you might not have the right ratio of gas:air and it can misfire and run badly. On the other hand, if you had a pre-existing misfire and a bunch of unburned gas was going down the exhaust, it can destroy O2 sensors and...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Working on a cool project for the KK. I built a trunk box with a tool drawer about 10 years ago, and it has some additional space behind the rear seats for a washer fluid bottle and some picnic blankets. I am repurposing half the additional space behind the rear seats by building a custom...

    AC refrigerant leaking from black tube after being charged

    I have one for the KK but it is different than the KJ. Google “Jeep Liberty Heater Core Replacement” and YouTube and I am sure you will find several walk-throughs for the KJ. I know you’re doing an evaporator but the heater core is more common and the dash disassemble would be the same.

    Welcome, Neil. :D I’m sure you will find some familiar faces from LOST here. Wheel speed sensor was my first thought as well.

    Took the kids wheeling today and climbed a fire tower. It was a blast!

    NEED 4.56 RING AND PINION FOR MY KJ

    I have never heard of anyone swapping a KK front differential into a KJ. It would necessitate the KK CV axles and front running gear being swapped over with it. Possibly also the engine cradle where the diff attaches… I am not sure how much of an expensive chain reaction would ensue by trying to...

    Small Evap leak, P0456

    Thanks for posting this. As out Jeeps age P0456 will plague more and more of them. I have tried to sort that code on my in-laws’ 04 WJ to no avail.

    NEED 4.56 RING AND PINION FOR MY KJ

    Yes the D30 case on the KK is compatible with the non-rubicon JK D30 gears. Thus a KK can run 4.10, 4.56, or even 4.88. I only heard of one guy who ran 4.88 and he said that was going way too far because he could not fit tires large enough to match.

    AC refrigerant leaking from black tube after being charged

    You mentioned your AC had dye put into it. That stuff is Ghostbusters green, if that’s the color of liquid you’re seeing coming out the tube. Or at least that’s what was coming from my compressor when it needed replacing.
