    Correct OME springs for winch install

    Does that mean it's stiffer, softer, better offroad, better onroad, etc??? And no I've never had the opportunity to ride in a modded KJ - not a lot near me that I've seen.

    Correct OME springs for winch install

    How does it ride compared to stock? And, did you install the heavy springs all the way around or just up front?

    Lockers or not

    Command trac is the model of transfer case, it doesn't affect the rear differential axle traction. The trac lok differential carrier LSD is for the rear only. You'll have to rebuild the rear diff with the trac lok carrier. You can send me $$$ on paypal and then I'll ship to you.

    Lockers or not

    Yes the trac lok is the factory lsd, you can either install that or the dtt.

    Lockers or not

    Just $100 + shipping. It’s the entire carrier

    Correct OME springs for winch install

    Going too big on the spring rate is an excellent way to make the ride stiff, which is not what I want. But okay, input taken - Go bigger.

    Jeep wheel interchange

    Btw, Dodge Nitro wheels will also fit the KJ/KK. No idea they're weight/offset though, but they do have pretty cool looking 16" steel wheels.

    Correct OME springs for winch install

    I'd like a slightly taller but not overly stiff lift on my KJ - a true 1 to 1.5" lift. So I ordered ARB 2925 front and 2947 rear (backordered at the moment). But now I've got a line on a detours winch mount and I'd like to add a winch to the front. Should I go up on the front springs to 2926 to...

    Lockers or not

    I agree ^ DTT are really the best all-round option. On Front/Back, they're about 95% as good as a locker without the hassle and cost of dealing with a locker.

    3.7 engine reputation

    the 3.7 has a reputation of dropping exhaust valves due to a poorly designed valve retainer that doesn't allow the valve to rotate during combustion and then it overheats. PO of my '02 KJ had this happen, it's a common failure point (google is your friend) but I assume at some point they changed...

    Lockers or not

    I put an early lunchbox locker in the late 90s on my old ford 60s muscle car and it grenaded (stopped working) after a few years of driving. I imagine things have improved since that time period but it put a bad taste in my mouth on lunchbox lockers. By comparison, LSD are much smoother and much...

    Lockers or not

    Arb requires a compressor and air lines, which means extra money and can be damaged or leak. Ox locker uses a heavy cable that can be actuated by electric shifter.

    2006 Liberty 4x4 with 3.7L - Scheduled Maintenance Is Critical

    Well I've been running NGK iridiums for the last few years. No issues, good mileage, power, idle, with very little wear on the plugs. I guess YMMV

    Noob question- alloy vs. steel

    Got an OEM 16" KJ steel wheel in hand: with hubcap weight is 26.5lbs, net offset (measured to edge of rim subtracted by the wheel lip diameter) is 5 1/4". Otherwise, the total offset is 5 3/4" My OEM 16" KJ Alloy wheels measure 5 3/4" total offset (or 5 1/4" net offset), and weigh at 21lbs. So...

    Napa or Mopar reman

    Napa lifetime axles have the warranty, which is probably what makes them the best for lifted jeeps. When/if they get damaged just get them replaced. Fairly inexpensive too

    Rear control arm help!!

    I had a mevotech supreme installed for 2 years, which I ended up replacing. The ball joint was fine and still tight, it was one bushing that tore, most likely an install issue on my end though. But lifetime part, so I got a new one for free. 6 months later no issues

    2006 Liberty 4x4 with 3.7L - Scheduled Maintenance Is Critical

    So why not use iridium plugs then? You might get 100k out of those
