    2005 Jeep Liberty Front Shock/Strut/Coilover Suggestions

    Backtrack one second on that, UCA? Sorry I know most acronyms but that one eludes me. I was planning on giving the knuckle a good whack that the UBJ slides into right where the #5 arrow is but it sounds like your suggesting something different, pic thrown in so point away. I was also...

    2005 Liberty Limited Rear Suspension (OEM)

    Yeah it's been the wife's since new, her ex years before did not treat it very well so it has a scuff or two but I've given it plenty of TLC. Done all maintenance/repairs myself since we have been together and it still runs strong as an ox. When I say a few more years I'm looking like 5-6 down...

    2005 Liberty Limited Rear Suspension (OEM)

    -I was just making sure I read his post correctly about the mileage. -Everything I looked up on OME site and when going through the product catalog was not even able to select a Jeep Liberty, options were Wrangler/Cherokee. I'm sure there is cross reference but I am truly looking to just get...

    2005 Jeep Liberty Front Shock/Strut/Coilover Suggestions

    I picked up the Moog set from Rock Auto. I plan on the ride being a little stiffer as the originals have 150k on them, but since I am looking at a full replacement these seemed the easiest and best for the $. I'm not planning on doing more than the standard driving duty so no lift, off...

    2005 Jeep Liberty Front Shock/Strut/Coilover Suggestions

    Allow me to update as I have found a MOOG Complete assembly which is what I am looking for as I am going to replace both spring/strut and figure it's easier to do it this way than deal with a spring compressor. Plus I already have MOOG springs in the back so it seems a natural progression to...

    2005 Jeep Liberty Front Shock/Strut/Coilover Suggestions

    After completing the rear shock/spring changeover last night and noticing the immense improvement in ride/handling I'm going to take on the front sooner than later. I'm looking for suggestions and would like to remain pretty much OEM. For the rears I did MOOG springs with KYB Excel shocks...

    2005 Liberty Limited Rear Suspension (OEM)

    Did you only get 25k miles out of them or was that because you finally decided and had the funds to change them to what you really wanted? I changed the rear last night and it was actually VERY easy, the hardest part was loosening the lower shock bolt which took some PB Blaster and a few hits...

    2005 Liberty Limited Rear Suspension (OEM)

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Found a video to and it looks WAY easier than I originally though. Won't have to borrow my neighbors lift either, seems the jack will hold the rear axle perfectly. I ended up getting a set of MOOG springs and KYB shocks. Picked all the parts up for the rear...

    2005 Liberty Limited Rear Suspension (OEM)

    I've done all the maintenance on this car up through it's 150k miles. This includes the rotations, oil changes, batteries, brakes, AC Condenser and recharge, radiator/thermostat, and water pump. All very easy jobs on a super simple car to work on if you ask me. I'm doing my research now on...

    150k miles and still looks good

    Spent the better part of two days on her, the outside was a mess at first. Went so far as to clean the wheels inside and out and polish them during a rotation, then threw on new lug nuts. FYI I only use Meguiar's polish/wax products and a Meguiar's G100 (Porter Cable 7464) for detailing...

    2005 Liberty Limited, 108,000 Service Costs?

    I did the brakes myself last time with my father in-law. It was actually my first brake job but I don't think he did it quite right. I was more of a support role on this and he is an auto body tech, not a mechanic so he has some skills but not necessarily in the service area. I just may have...

    2005 Liberty Limited, 108,000 Service Costs?

    The wife's Jeep is at the dealer now getting the recall inspection done. I also had them do a once over since the car has 108,000 miles and figured it was going to need some work. We plan on keeping it for a few more years (house first) and it runs well now. They are going to do the front...

    Lights flicker when turning

    Well not signaling is not an option, its a $75 fine in CT. If I lived in Rhode Island it would be a different story. The dealer already replaced the stalk once under warranty and it solved the issue temporarily, but it's back again.

    Hey, It is a 2005 Jeep Liberty Renegade, stock. Not setup for towing or any heavy off-roading. Not sure if that makes a difference or not.

    Power Steering Pressure Hose

    My fiance just got back from another issue she had which I will post next. They told her that there was a tiny leak in her PSPH, but yet there is no signs of fluids under the car, they said it was due to where it was located. They also quoted her like $430 for the job?!!?!?! It's a...

    OEM Head Unit Light Out

    My fiance's 05 Liberty Renegade just had one or two lights go out. On the far right where the FFW is. Noticed it last night. Is it simple to pop to plastic surround, remove the HU and pop the face off to replace the bulb? If it's that simple, I've done it before on other cars. But just want...

    need remote start help !!! >>

    Just installed my gf's last night took almost 4 hours to do. Biggest PIA was I had to put the rubber gasket boot back over the plastic firewall fitting. I had to remove the battery and the relay panel in the corner to reach. Even then it took me a half hour of literally kneeling on top of the...
