    Differential covers and guards.

    I know, from the reducer gears that I maintain at work, that over filling gear oil can cause as much trouble as under filling. High fluid levels can prevent "slinging" of lubricant into the top of the casing. Surprisingly, this "slinging" action is responsible for much of the cooling of the...

    Jeep-I-Joe's 02' 4x4 Liberty Limited (Black)

    Noise gone in rear end! I am working my way through to the 60k mile maintenance. Without maintenance records, I can't be sure about the maintenance that has been performed. I changed out the rear differential gear oil for 75w-140 with a modifier. I was hearing a noise in the rear end. Since the...

    Not that it matters with that level of functionality, but, the riddler looks good too.

    Track Lock. Grumbling noise in slow turn?

    Resonlved! I did changed-out the gear oil 75w-140 and added the modifeir. The sound went away immediately. The old gear oil must have broken down. I'm glad I got to it before any real damage was done. I still want to switch to the Detroit True Track. It looks like I may be waiting a bit longer...

    Whats wrong with my brakes??

    If your pads are good and your fluid is at the right level, your pads could be slipping due to a weakening master cylinder. Have a break shop check it out. If it's not simple pads, rotors and lines; I like the confidence of taking my breaks to a reputable break shop.

    Track Lock. Grumbling noise in slow turn?

    The more I check into it the more confident I become. It seems like a strong piece of engineering. I'll be sure to protect it with a Riddler cover.

    someone keyed it!!

    I'm as confused as him, flair1111.kopkrab.gif What year is your Liberty again? I have to know that trick. It could have saved me $125 on a spare key.

    Differential covers and guards.

    Yeah, mt mind is made up. When I replace my diferential, I'm getting a riddler. It would suck to make an upgrade just to have it crunch on a rock or stump.

    Impressive video!laugh.gif These are less expensive than many other covers I've priced in the HD category.

    someone keyed it!!

    I just got a second key from the dealer for $125.00 USD. The keyless entry I got off of eBay for $6.95 + s&h ($13.65 all together). It would have beet $125.00 each from the dealer. I tried to follow the instructions to program myself. It didn't work... or I didn't. Either way, I went to the...

    Differential covers and guards.

    I intend to make a differential change in the near future, from stock to the Detroit True Track. I'm trying to think of all of the "while I'm in there" scenarios. A question has come up of how to protect the differential, i.e., differential cover, differential guard, HD cover front and guard on...

    Track Lock. Grumbling noise in slow turn?

    tjkj2002, I like your rule "When it breaks, upgrade!" My wife told me to wait until things break to do any mods. I'll have to tell her, "Oops, I broke the LSD:)"

    Are there any drawbacks to making this switch?

    Jeep-I-Joe's 02' 4x4 Liberty Limited (Black)

    I just got her, no plates front or back. But, it was getting on my nerves too. I especially hate that its cracked. You can see a little piece flipped out on the side. I plan to get a new holder and a vanity plate for it. I only have the cover because my brother had the tire mounts rust out on...

    Track Lock. Grumbling noise in slow turn?

    Would the Detroit True Track do away with the Track Lock technology? If so, would most consider that a good thing? Does anyone love Track Lock and Why?

    Track Lock. Grumbling noise in slow turn?

    I just bought her this week. No maintenance records. I don't know when her last gear oil change was. I'll take care of it this weekend though. I'll use the ATF+4 and add the 4oz of friction modifier. With the front differential, is friction modifier necessary? Can I get away with red RTV and...
