    H&R Spring Review

    So far so good - I did add a couple conduit nuts up from after the front settled about 1/4". Still happy with how it drives - better than stock and not quite as stiff as the OME heavy springs. I have the springs paired with just some Monroe Spectrum shocks - will upgrade to Bilsteins when these...

    Best year and trim for budget adventure off-road build

    Sunroof will limit you to just Limited and Renegade models I think - here's a few I found on marketplace tonight https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2263463274051387/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3Ae107d2ce-864e-45f3-9c70-7cdff305972d...

    2006 Jeep Liberty KJ no high beam on right side only?

    Did you check to see if there was power at the high beam fuse in the fuse box? Both high beams share the same relay so the relay should be ok. If you have power at the fuse and not at the bulb socket then you know you have a wiring issue. No power at the fuse would indicate a fuse box issue. The...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Installed my new bulbs and harness last night - the bulbs definitely have more output than the old Hella bulbs that I had previously - I tried taking a picture of the 2 different bulbs against the shop door at night, but you could not see a difference in the photo. The Philips bulbs for sure are...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Bought some new bulbs today - thought I would experiment with making a new harness with larger gauge wires, so I bought a few connectors and pulled the pins out and soldered on some 14g wiring instead of the 18g that the factory uses. Plan is to use the factory wires to turn on a couple relays...

    They are ok - wouldn't be happy if I paid money for them, but you can't beat free

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Got some off shore led fog lamps given to me the other day - they are for a JK stock front bumper but have heard that they will work on the KJ. Once you pop the lights out of the mounting bracket the two side tabs match up perfectly to the holes in the KJ rad support assembly. And on these...

    Big tires aren't always the answer....

    This video gives some good insight into how much difference a rear locker can make as opposed to the big lift/tire combo. Not a huge fan of the presenters but if you fast forward through the talking bits it's a ok video.

    2006 Jeep Liberty (42RLE) 3.7V (gasoline): Reverse not working

    When you say with the ignition on you can't move the vehicle - is that with the engine running? If it is then you have internal transmission issues - it won't be a cable issue.

    2006 Jeep Liberty (42RLE) 3.7V (gasoline): Reverse not working

    Sounds like you might have a reverse clutch issue - the shudder, then loss of reverse, and the pan magnet point to a failed clutch pack. Might be time for a rebuild.

    Nice! What was your investment in all the parts vs a complete battery?

    O2 Fault Codes

    Fix the misfire codes first. The faulty heater circuit isn't going to really contribute to your misfire problems, and the downstream sensors are primarily just used for determining if the cats are doing their job.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I have a Milwaukee 12v 3/8 drive ratchet that I have been abusing for years now - works like a charm. It has tightened up more valve covers and timing covers then I can count :D

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'm in the process of planning out a portable 12 volt system for the Jeep - was thinking a 100ah battery and inverter built into a wooden box that will fit in behind the front pass seat. I have already installed a dc/dc charger with an Anderson plug under the back seat - just need to decide on a...

    Did you replace the carrier bearings while you were in there? did you get your pinion preload set correctly?
