    I hate winter!

    Putting salt down lowers the freezing point of water so at temps below 32 deg F (0 deg C) it will cause the snow/ice to melt making for better traction (you're basically just driving thru rainwater at that point). But the salt that gets put down mixes with the water and gets thrown up on...

    I hate winter!

    x2, only thing I ever see is cinders on the snow when I go up to Flagstaff to visit my brother, but since I normally save those visits for the summertime it's a rare occurrence ;)

    headlight info.

    Not sure what the bulbs in the lightbar are, but the fog lights are a 9145 bulb. You can also buy some 9005s, file down one tab on each and they will fit the fog lights if you can't find any 9145s.

    Bump Stop Removal

    Hmmm, I used a 2x4 but I must not have eaten my spinach that day ;) Anyway like Digger said a little lube makes things much easier - it doesn't take a lot either, just a thin film of silicon or other lubricant will work.

    Jeep Liberty Renegade 2010

    All I could think of looking at those picture was 'I wonder when they were in Sedona?'...

    Old Man Emu front coils

    x2, went from Daystar to OME a couple of months back and have noticed a definite improvement in ride quality. Also did the clevis lift (very simple to do while you're installing the springs) and have at least as much clearance as when I had the Daystar, probably more since the springs on the...

    Rancho shock noise????

    Since the shocks are installed correctly maybe the noise is air being 'pumped' in and out of the boots, perhaps a small hole in one or both of them? When I installed my 5000s I left the boots off mostly because of habit - even with my motorcycles if they had the boots on the front forks I would...

    Garmin Jeep Liberty Icon

    Might search around on gpspassion.com or maybe poifactory.com - other than that not really sure. Good luck with the search.

    Garmin Jeep Liberty Icon

    Everyone wants Renny lights - but if you look closely these all have lights on the front bumper which would be *close* to a new-style Renegade ;) Maybe once the holiday crunch winds down and I get into the swing of things next month I might consider doing those. Time will tell. In other news I...

    CB antenna SWR issue.

    The high SWR might also be due to antenna location, for instance if you have your antenna mounted on the swing gate or off the rear by the tail light (two popular locations) it may be that the antenna is too close to the metal of the body which is helping reflect part of the signal back into the...

    I just want to make sure I am clear

    I have 927s in front and haven't noticed any problems with ride quality (but I'm coming from having a Daystar in place for 2+ years so I may not remember correctly what it rode like prior to the lifts ;) ). As far as leveling things out I did a clevis lift (1/2") and my front end is still...

    07 Evic Problem..I'm stumped

    x2, sounds like something is wired thru the dome light circuit.

    Anyone ever stuck a hitch on the front of a KJ?

    I'll have to disagree. On the '05+ models the bumper facia sits lower so you have to cut it in the center to clear the receiver stub. He also took out the two recesses for the tow hooks on either side: Now if you were talking about the light brackets that's a whole other story... :confused:

    Anyone ever stuck a hitch on the front of a KJ?

    Nope, never have seen one of those on a KJ before... Oh wait, yes I have:

    staying out of water from now on!!

    Yeah, now we're talkin' some serious coin! Sounds like you guys are similar to AZ where it's a tax based on vehicle value, so it adjusts as your value declines. When I first registered mine it cost about $250, this last year was around $175. Oh and if water does that much damage to your KJ...

    Rancho RS5000 series front Strut

    Just put a pair of those in the front and after about three weeks I haven't noticed any problems. Haven't had a chance to get off-pavement yet but I think they'll do just fine. So is that an either/or statement? I've got the 927s in my front end and they give the same lift as I had with the...

    Could i overload my BCM with homemade lights????

    Yes but then he took the original lights and added them under the dash for courtesy lights (if I'm reading his original post correctly). Might want to check this thread on installing an additional overhead light above the rear seat and this one on installing courtesy lights. They might help...

    Ignition wires...

    The wires are standard low-voltage stuff, same as those that supply the headlights, radio, you get the idea. The only possible upgrade other than plugs or an aftermarket tune chip would be the remote chance that someone makes coils that have better performance characteristics than OEM (probably...

    JBA A-arms

    OK if you are planning on going to JBA arms then you will need an alignment. Once you put the aftermarket arms on you will have quite a bit of positive camber - you're front end will look like an old VW bug with the engine out, like this >> \\----//
