    Any more parts addicts out there?

    When frequenting my local "pull a part" salvage yard, I am prone to buy parts for possible future needs, especially if the part is expensive and the one I am buying is nearly new. I am talking about buying used parts at 10 cents or less on the dollar for new parts. Examples: almost new upper...

    P0300 Question

    Follow up..... Talked with my next door neighbor who is a Jeep mechanic. I told him about my misfire after filling up Libby. He said "just tell me you didn't fill up with xxx gas." When I told him I had, he said garages in the area are finding problems with their gas. Guess the old saying...

    P0300 Question

    Yesterday my wife was driving Libby and the MIL started flashing and the engine was losing power. She drove about 300 yards to a safe parking area and shut off the engine. I was right behind her in my truck so pulled over. We swapped vehicles. I started the engine (3.7l) and the MIL light...

    Seat dilemma

    Seats.... Get your seat from a salvage yard. You can buy a driver seat for the frame and hardware. If your upholstery is worn out, find a passenger side front seat with the same upholstery and change it to the driver side. The passenger seat bottom bolts right in to the driver side. You...

    Transmission Interchangeability

    Trans... Not an expert but will share what I know. Both '04 & '06 use 42RLE trans. The bolt pattern to the engine & starter is the same and plugs should be the same. You can check this by looking up part numbers for input & out put speed sensors and the third plug on the passenger side...

    Transfer case question

    Are '02 & '03 transfer cases the same unit? How durable are these units? Should I bother to secure a spare from an '02 for my '03 4x4? The '02 has a 45RFE trans and my '03 has a 42RLE. Do these trans use the same transfer case? Thanks

    Check Engine Light DON'T COME ON.

    What mileage does the odometer show? The mileage on your Liberty or the mileage on the Liberty the cluster came from? My understanding is that the cluster stores the mileage not the PCM so my question. Can we pull a cluster from a salvage yard car, install it in our Liberty, and have the...

    Drive Side Seat Upholstery & Squeak...

    My 2003 Liberty Limited had a worn driver side seat bottom showing foam on the outside edge of the seat. Back is perfect. It also had an annoying squeak whenever I moved in the seat. Drove me crazy but didn't bother my wife. I found a perfect passenger side seat bottom in matching upholstery...

    Agree. Once had a Chevy S10 that would randomly lose power then run normally. Turned out to be failed fuel pump.

    Bad transfer case of front driveshaft?

    Rock? Glad your noise went away but it is worrisome not knowing why. Check the rotors closely for witness marks. If a stone got caught it should have left some mark on the rotor since it made enough noise for you to hear.

    In love....

    I have owned several different brands of vehicles over the years for my personal use - Fiat 124 Spyders, Bertones, Pontiac Fiero Gt's, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Chrysler Sebring convertibles, Saab convertibles, and Ford and Chevy pickups. Choices a bit strange to many but they appealed to me. But my...

    Dash Light Issues

    Grounds The battery was a good start but there is more. Get a wiring diagram and find all the ground connections on your Jeep. Disconnect, clean, and re-connect. Hinky lighting issues like you describe are often due to corroded ground issues. Look especially at grounds under the hood as...

    Another where's the oil going thread (Lots of it!)

    Oil leak Check the oil filter for leaks. I changed the oil on my 3.7 and the Mopar oil filter developed a leak after about 50 miles. Had to replace the new filter to stop the leak. I found it by the puddle under the engine. I originally thought the oil pressure sender and then the front...

    Gas tank fell off '02 KJ

    Tank fell off? I would find out why the tank fell off. Since you are in Ohio, probably a rusted fuel tank strap under stress from a full fuel tank. 20 gallons of gas weighs a lot. I would also recommend getting a used gas tank and look for used rust free tank straps. Dealer prices for a new...

    Opinions about my next upgrade

    Miles... My '03 3.7l has 178k on it and runs fine. I replaced the 42RLE trans at 173k due to failure of the torque converter clutch. The trans was fine except for the torque converter. So 137k miles is not excessive if you keep up maintenance. I have replaced the water pump and accessory...
