    Jacking and Lifting Point Pics

    Thanks. Do you have pics of where under the front lower control arms? Seems at least one wheel needs to come off the ground to rotate things to take out the front drive shaft. Just driving up on ramps won't do that. Is there a way to go up on ramps and then jack up one wheel just to get...

    Jacking and Lifting Point Pics

    The manual explains jacking for tire change purposes. The manual pic and explanation are still inadequate in my view. And there is no explanation for lifting the front of the vehicle for placing jack stands in the right place. So here are some pics for those who might be confused or new to...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Two Way Radio Mount Installed Today I fabricated a simple but sturdy mount for my VHF/UHF handheld two way radio. This was made from a heavy plastic drinking cup that fits into the cup holder. Holes, notches, and zip ties hold the small wood clip board in just the right place and angle...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I pick up a rear window at the JY The back light on my Liberty was etched by a wiper arm. Some DA PO was just careless with maintenance. Found a 2006 'gade with nice glass. Dark tint like I have. Swing gate was gone, but the glass was there. Interior was pretty well stripped. Had only...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Recalls Completed I picked up the Burro from the dealer today. They had finished the trailer hitch install and rear suspension arm replacement. Looks good and sounds less thumpy on the road.

    A/C Compressor Cycling---weird

    OK, I don't claim to understand all the features on this vehicle. But the A/C compressor cycles even when no defrost or or A/C is selected. Is this normal, or is there a stuck relay or something? 2006 Sport 3.7 auto

    Rear Drive Shaft Service Life?

    When Burro II was up on blocks this week I took a close look at the rear drive shaft. Rusty as heck. Looks all original. 122K. The spicer joint does not seem serviceable. No apparent problems at this point. But I am curious as to typical service life of these. And is there a...

    Towing flat four wire harness connections...?

    Thanks everyone. This will be for a light weight utility trailer. I think I will go ahead and use a flat four wire and some diodes and keep it simple and inexpensive. I don't mind splices. And I solder and shrink wrap everything. Done it before. Just needed to know where the best tap...

    Towing flat four wire harness connections...?

    I looked but could not find a "how to" or FAQ on connecting a four wire trailer light harness to the existing wires at the back of the KJ. PO never got the hitch installed under the exploding gas tank recall. I am taking El Burro into the dealer for that recall this week. Figured since I...

    Dip Sticks for Dummies

    I let it drain for over two days and nights. I think at least another quart drained out. So I'm going slow putting the fluid back in. Added half a qt today. Will see where that brings it next hot drive.

    Nope. I love the saggy look it has, can't you tell? And it rides like a buckboard, why make it harsher?
