    I've increased MPG's a bit.

    You're pretty much on par with MPGs. On Avg I get between 16-18 in the city and 19-22 HWY. I have a ScanGauge II to calculate my mileage. The best I ever recorded was 22.8MPG going @ 65MPH. I got an 06 with 45k on it. Everything is still stock. Changed out the Factory SR-A's last year for a set...

    Rear swing gate won't lock

    Pop off the tail gate interior cover and check all connections. Re-seat them as well. It's the best place to start when trouble shooting a issue like this. It's easier to access everything by popping off the entire door cover and not just the little access panel. I had an issue last summer...

    Creaking noise when jeep is uneven

    Mine has been creaking in the rear ever since the lower control arm recall. Up until then It never creaked. I think it's the sway bar. Only side to side suspension motion causes it to creek. If I go over a speed bump straight on. Nothing. If you go over one of those angled speed bumps then it...

    Putting in a brand new engine...

    I use Mobil-1 Full Synth since the Jeep had 6000 miles on it. Now has just over 45000. I change my oil every six months. (March and September). I put on about 2000-2500 miles between oil changes. Probably could go a year with out changing it but that just doesn't feel right.

    Exhaust louder and vibration after skid install.

    You basically made a sound enclosure and the engine noise has no where to go. Nice skid though, I like it.

    Mats...

    I hear ya. I wore a hole through my driver side mat with my heel. I have an old 12inx8in rubber mat from my old car under the mat so I don't wear a whole through the carpet.

    Agreed, The 45RLE was used in 2002 KJs. The 545RLE was used in the Diesel models of the KJ.

    Possible Recall 2002-2007?

    If they are replacing aftermarket hitches, are they going to compensate those who bought them? If not, then I'll keep my aftermarket and save myself the trouble from this recall

    Possible Recall 2002-2007?

    My wife used to own a Mercedes-Benz 300E. the car was from the late 80's early 90's. The gas tank was in the trunk too but it sat right behind the back rest of the Rear seats. If the vehicle rocked enough the gas could be heard moving in the tank like there was a pool in trunk.

    Possible Recall 2002-2007?

    I thinking of a new tank along with skids... but more of a new tank since mine likes to shoot gas back out. A new tank would make my day :-)

    tow hook brackets?

    Yup, those are mounts for a tow bar setup so the KJ can be flat towed behind an RV. I helped my father install those same brackets last year on his KJ. There from Road Master. If you ever pull them off you can get about $200 for them. you are missing some of the kit though...

    Side window deflectors

    I recommend the AVS in-channel. Been using them on all my cars. They come with a life time warranty. My rear driver door visor broke on mine a few months ago. They been on my Jeep for over 6 years. I went to the AVS site and started an RMA. Two emails later They sent me an entire new set of...

    And just so you are a aware. The screws are Torx screws. I believe it's a T-10 or T-15 you'll need. Most decent bit sets include these now-a-days

    2006 Liberty A/C issue

    Not a Problem. The stores should have it in stock since it's used in multiple Dodge.Chrysler vehicles. I would call them ahead to save your self driving time. Just ask for a Blower Motor Resistor for a 2006 Liberty.

    2006 Liberty A/C issue

    Welcome to forum. When you say only on position 4, Do you mean the fan speed? If so... Its the blower motor resistor that died. $15 dollar part @ the local auto parts store. Located behind the glove box. Takes about 15 minutes to swap out. I swapped out one on my wife's 2002 liberty a...
