    Cracked Cylinder Head - Passenger Side

    If it was mine I'd try to find a good used engine & swap it in if the jeep is nice & doesn't need much other work . I would estimate that a remanufactured engine installed by a shop would cost at a minimum 4,000 & probably closer to 6,000 . A fairly low mileage engine on CarPart.Com runs close...

    Cracked Cylinder Head - Passenger Side

    My personal opinion is that if you have a shop install a remanufactured engine you'll have more in it than it's worth , especially if the rest of the jeep isn't in near perfect condition . In my area you can buy a good running liberty for much less than what you're going to have invested in...

    Replace starter 02 Liberty

    On an 02 the drivers side cat prevents the starter from coming out . Will removing the bands / clamps that hold the cats to the exhaust manifolds & dropping the crossover pipe down to the crossmember allow the starter enough room to come out ? The front shaft is out . Another question , anyone...

    Liberty engines years that are able to be swapped

    I swapped engines in my 05 , had a high mileage engine with low compression & swapped in a low mileage 05 engine that ran well . I swapped oil pans only because the engine I was installing had a dent , installed all new expansion plugs which wasn't really necessary because the ones that came out...
