    AC issue

    yes, it runs on its own for 10-15 mins then goes bad. I think it has slowly gotten worse over time. My wife drives it so I havent noticed the progression but I am now driving it to figure it out. Pretty surer the coil in the clutch is going bad. From my readings it sounds like you might...

    AC issue

    Ok but if that was the case wouldn't the clutch not engage at all? Mine will run and cool the car but after say 15 mins it shuts off. I pulled the pressure sensor and made sure it was seated correctly. The clutch when it is shut off is magnetized, so the coil must be going bad.

    Ac Clutch Rebuild

    I would be getting a new pulley, when in doubt. I had read that rebuilding or even replacing just the clutch is not worth it. My clutch is failing as well and I am opting for the replacement compressor. I agree it is dumb that I need to replace other components to get the warranty but...

    AC issue

    thanks. So it sounds like this is worth doing. Just have a shop evacuate the system, drive the truck home, do the work, drive it back and have them recharge the system. Can you help me with the info on the correct amount of oil in the components and what type? I am still assuming my...

    AC issue

    bet yours is the same thing. Tap the front of the clutch plate while the engine is running ***VERY CAREFULLY*** and see if the clutch engages. I would bet it will engage and then when you give some throttle load it will disengage. Now if someone else would chime in on doing this compressor...

    AC issue

    the magnetism is due to the clutch not engaging yet it is trying to. While the system is running properly the clutch is magnetized while engaged. When the clutch plate disengages it is no longer magnetized. Once some load is applied after 10-15 mins the clutch plate will disengage and...

    AC issue

    Cluth engages when tapped. Also noticed the clutch is magnetized, what does that tell me? Already checked fuse and relay, both good. Swapped the relay for equal with one that was known to be working. Its an 03 with 110,000 miles. Also checked freon level, it measures correctly when...

    AC issue

    my clutch does not seem to cycle, no cold air. seems like the clutch is bad, does this mean the compressor is as well? is this something worth getting in to myself? Sounds like at very least if I were to replace the compressor which includes a new clutch I need to have the system discharged...

    I have 4 Warn SDB 160 dual beam lights. These are great for spot and driving light, controlled by the switch. I also have the relay box and all necessary wiring and hardware to go with them. These look great on a rack, bumper, or anywhere. In great shape, these also have built in rock...

    Benefits of oiling?

    well yeah I forgot, if you get water inside and it soaks the floor and sits under the carpet you may rust your floorboards :D

    Benefits of oiling?

    Oil all over is a nightmare to work on. Our liberty had Black ruberized undercoating from day one and even it makes it very difficult to work on. I agree with car washes. In the winter I go once a week. Unfortunately my wife drives the liberty and chooses not to go to the carwash so it now...

    Lifespan of the stock battery

    unfortunately most batteries are picky. I like interstate batteries for the money. However you can never use the time frame as an exact science, keep checking it. I put a brand new interstate in my rover six months ago, recently I had some slow starts, shitty shifting, other general power...

    tcase output leak

    work actually. I figured if I was all the way out there from Ohio I might as well check some places out. Driving through Chugach Ntl park was great as well, I pull on to the main drag and immediately saw a couple bald eagles flying around.

    Roof Baskets............

    no offense to be taken hopefully but IMO most of the racks for a liberty sit way too high and look stupid. The factory bars are back so far that by the time you mount something on top it ends up looking goofy.
