I never heard of him before, just listening now. Had my doubts when I saw I think a hub cap with a broom stick and 3 strings... but damn it sounds great. Too funny, gonna be listening to this for a while.- Adam Roby

What did you do to your jeep today?
My mags look like crap, pitting and scratched up, curb rash etc... I was thinking of doing the PlastiDip flat black on mine... what did you use? Did you sand, strip, etc? How long did it take?- Adam Roby

Cool, thanks. Wow, I sent an email to the garage I have been going to for my transmission and asked about the front suspension (more for curiosity). With Quebec sales tax, that works out to a bill of $893.36... and that is just for the front, and most likely for Monroe quick struts...- Adam Roby

For the record, the rear upper control arm was changed in the fall because I could literally put my finger through the center bushing. The lower control arms I need to have another look at... I noticed the rubber looked cracked but was not sure how to really check it for looseness. I guess I...- Adam Roby

I want to find a shop I can trust... I imagine they could do it wrong or not align things properly. But yeah, that is probably the route I will be taking.- Adam Roby

Was that in your Liberty or another vehicle? Which quick struts did you install?- Adam Roby

Do you mean changing a set of quick struts, or using a compression tool and assembling the strut and coil yourself? I changed a spring off my Mercury Mistake (Mystique) a few years back. The coil had cracked in the middle. I used a compression tool but because of the crack it was unstable and...- Adam Roby

Thanks for the reply, I read your thread and will steer clear of the Ironman rear shocks since they could be problematic.- Adam Roby

Thanks for the reply. The avatar may be misleading because the driveway is on an angle, but I am pretty sure it can use a full replacement. These were the measurements I took last week. Doesn't seem as bad as some others I have seen, unfortunately I have no history for the vehicle so I can...- Adam Roby

Disclaimer: I know nothing about suspensions so please don't flame me too much. A little is fine... Is it possible for a shock/strut/coil spring to go bad suddenly or within a very short time? I have been driving my Jeep since last August (8-9 months) and the ride has been fine (as in...- Adam Roby

2008 Liberty Limited rear differential service?
I would imagine pumping would get the majority of it out... but that's just a guess. Maybe pump as much as you can, then add some and pump again... kind of like a flush? That's what I was wanting to do just didn't want to admit it publicly... garage wants $100.- Adam Roby

They sell super extra long ones cheap enough, just wonder how it would affect the geometry and feel... easy enough to swap out when needed. https://www.etrailer.com/Ball-Mounts/Hidden-Hitch/80232.html- Adam Roby

One above is rated at 10,000 lbs but costs $300! I'll try flipping the spare and see if that works first. ;)- Adam Roby

Yeah, they are cheap enough to get one for what you own. I wonder if an adjustable one would make more sense if you have a bunch of different requirements. This one is a bit pricey, but just the idea. Trimax Razor RP Adjustable Tow Hitch, Aluminum, 8-in Drop | Canadian Tire- Adam Roby

What did you do to your jeep today?
I do see your point with that. I too have seen all kinds of crazy stuff done over there. A buddy of mine works in PC manufacturing and they had a whole slew of issues at some point that in the end wound up being capacitor that were recapped to look like different rated caped (he actually...- Adam Roby

What did you do to your jeep today?
That is a strange one... may be that side not going through the regulator and providing more than the 12 (or 15.8) volts... the incandescent bulb would likely not care but an LED might be more sensitive to a higher voltage or spikes... just a guess. I bought a few sample LEDs last year from...- Adam Roby

....Lug nuts....
I think the key here is not letting some unknown garage touch the lugs in the first place. As Tom mentions earlier, only he touches his... lugs. I'd have to agree... a bunch of mine fell off after I let the garage put on my new rubber. It took a 6' bar to get my lugs off as a result. If you...- Adam Roby

What did you do to your jeep today?
I am sure if I were burned enough times from China I would also ban them... but so far I have had decent success. Electronics and stuff seem to be decent, but I would never buys parts for the Jeep there (well, other than stickers of course).- Adam Roby
