    Newbie - Rene 05

    Re: Bug Deflector Thanks for the advice, Rich. Yah, ordering stuff online makes me iffy...especially the ones marked simply "fits all Liberty models". I noticed there are quite a few things on Rennie's that differ from the other models. BTW, I am unable to compare (due to lack of 2005...

    Newbie - Rene 05

    So that's how a Rennie looks with a bug deflector. Thanks! O:)

    I see... so the heated part is the only "luxury". [-(

    Latest Gas Mileage report... almost 3K miles on my '05 now.

    Yah, my KJ spends more time running idle in bumper-to-bumper traffic than getting any distance in a day.

    Amp Gain & Bass EQ settings...

    I'm guessing they are the lows to my 2-way speakers. Rap and Metal distort, but rock and other types of music do not. I just figured if I take the bass boost down a notch, things may sound a little clearer. As for matching the wattage, I just read into the recommendations and advice of online...

    Capacitor, battery, or alternator?

    Thanks for the advice, kolesy... Well, the way I understand caps is that they kind of reserve/buffer power until a burst is needed from the amp on the bass beat; taking the stress off the battery...am I on the right track? The peak power of my Alpine is 360W (what it says on the box); those...

    Capacitor, battery, or alternator?

    I've only got about 500W RMS of power (two amps combined) at the most and my lights still flicker when the bass hits at high volume. I've been peaking into car stereo forums... and there's much debate on whether to get a capacitor, "better" battery, or bigger alternator. Most people say...

    Jeep liberty 2001 2.5 CRD

    Don't the US Spec KJ's with the Luxury Group package have the power, fold-away mirrors?

    Amp Gain & Bass EQ settings...

    Amp = 40W RMS Speaker = 60W RMS Right now on my amp I have the gain level set to “Normal” and my Bass EQ on “+6” (half way on both). I’m able to crank my volume up to 94% without distortions; any higher I can hear the lows get a little fuzzy. I’d like to be able to blast my music as loud as...

    Latest Gas Mileage report... almost 3K miles on my '05 now.

    I probably rule when it comes to worst gas mileage... averaging 11-12 mpg. I even have a Borla exhaust and K&N air filter, too. cryinghard.gif

    Question on roof rack

    Keep us posted on your research. I'm having no luck with vendors that I email...(like the response I got from Surco). At first, they are usually positive the racks fit on all Liberty's until I ask about the thicker roof rails. It seems most others require crossbars...which also run into the...

    Cheonan, Korea

    I plan on keeping my KJ as long as I can. I'm shipping it back with me. It's really hard to sell locally. The locals still have to pay customs/taxes on foreign vehicles and a fee to a Gov't agency to do the paper work, which is a mandatory requirement. I don't know what all this is in detail...

    Question on roof rack

    Well, I confirmed Surco roof racks don't fit the 2005 Rennie's... but I thought I'd like to share the interesting response I got from Surco Products, Inc.: The Liberty does not offer roof rails. The rails on both vehicles are the same. The difference in the Renegade is that the rails are...

    Finally... Two Jeeps!

    That is one beautiful machine! Congratulations! (cool) One of my neighbors has a blue hard top...can't take my eyes off it whenever I pass by in the morning. The TJ was actually the Jeep I was after a few months ago, but my wife was pregnant with our second kid at the time; needed more of a...

    Cheonan, Korea

    Thanks, grogie. The photo is actually...artificial. It was really foggy up there in the mountains that morning (more like creepy--was at a cemetary, in fact). After enhancing it, the red sun rays sort of made that effect. The plates are newly designed and came out in the beginning of this...

    Cheonan, Korea

    The other day (the day I took this pic, in fact) I had to remove my sub so I could fit in luggage and strollers for my kids and kept thinking, "if only I had a roof basket". The bull bar is for looks and ramming sedans who cut me off in traffic. (biggrin) j/k Tires...well, I hardly drive this...

    Cheonan, Korea

    Actually, it's due to picture enhancement; it was a bit foggy (the lightbar kicked ass that morning, though). O:) I was looking into a roof basket and bull bar, but having no luck (no one is willing to ship it USPS). I guess I'll have to wait until I can go home...some day.

    Just thought I'd share the first image of my KJ with everyone... My KJ's first trip out to the countryside. I could use more accessories, huh?

    Question on roof rack

    Thanks for your reply, Bennett. By the way, how do these baskets mount to the rails? Is is like a clamp (w/foam or soft rubber in between) and then tightened by a nut/bolt?
