    4X2 to 4X4

    NC Where are you moving in NC? I live very close to the mountains of western NC, and have only needed 4wd (because of snow) twice. It has come in handy when wheelin though. It can be done, but it isn't going to be easy, or cheap.

    Does My Car Have Keyless Entry?

    Keyless I don't know of a Liberty that came without keyless entry. I suggest buying a remote or two, also called a FOB from eBay. You'll have to take it to the dealership to have it programmed. Once you have two programmed remotes, you can program them yourself.

    Check this KJ out!

    Rhd That's a LHD that's been converted over to RHD. There was an actual RHD on the lot when I bought mine. A postal worker ordered it and never picked it up. They were giving a pretty good price on it, but I didn't want a white sport.

    Better Back up light on the liberty

    Lights I've been thinking about adding a set of these: http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/tf-Browse/s-10101/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2004313/p-2004313/N-111+10101+4294966682/c-10101 Or maybe some lights on my Renegade basket, or maybe both.

    Warmer temps=better performance

    Cold weather The pressure in your tires will drop with the temperature, increasing your rolling resistance and decreasing mpg's. Also, switch to a lighter weight oil. I use 5W20 in the winter as opposed to 5W30 in the summer.

    Tow Job.

    Haulin' I've had no problems pulling with the KJ. I pull an RX-7 on a 16' trailer over the mountain from Asheville, NC to Johnson City, TN. The car and trailer weighed 4800 pounds, which is near the 5000 pound limit. My biggest concern were my brakes coming back down the mountain, but again the...

    Redundant Emmisions System.

    MPG's There is no cheap way to increase mpg's. The 3.7L is pretty efficient as is. The best ways to increase mpg's are to reduce weight, improve aerodynamics and reduce rolling resistance. Go on a diet, rip out your interior, lower your Jeep, coat it in teflon and put some slicks on the...

    Redundant Emmisions System.

    Cat's Legally, you probably can't remove them. So long as you live in a state that doesn't have emissions tests, who's gonna know? Cat's aren't cheap, so I can't imagine them not being on there for a good reason. I'm not sure exactly what's on our Jeeps, but there are a couple of different...

    A/C Compressor

    AC It does make a difference. I have a 2004, and I usually drive with it set on recirculate so I won't have to smell the landfill, exhaust or cigarette smoke. The only way to do this on an 04 was to have the AC on. I swapped out the controls with the 05+ model so I can drive around with the...

    Window Creakin'

    Noise I just removed my entire interior to track down my noise after I finally decided it was unbearable. I removed all of the interior trim, the headliner, the seats and the carpeting. The culprit was a foam spacer on the sunroof. The spacer was between the rails that the sunroof slides on...

    Light Bar Aiming

    Aiming I aimed my just above the head lights at 25'. I figured that would give me good coverage right in front of me. You could aim them a little higher for a larger area of dispersion.

    Need some advice?

    MPG's My 2004 average 16.7 around town and 22.1 on the highway. I have noticed gas containing ethanol hurts my MPG's. It's impossible to find gas with less than 10% ethanol, some places sell 15% or 20%. If I use 10% ethanol, I lose 10% MPG. Different years have differnt tank sizes...

    EVIC question

    It's definately a power issue. I'm drawing my power from the left leg of fuse #31. My dealership mechanic relocated it there when I described the same problem you are having. No problems since then.

    Tire Presure System.. NEED LOTS OF HELP!

    Evic I don't mean to throw a wrench into things, but I added an EVIC to my 04. First I tried an EVIC out of an 03, but the temperature didn't work. So I found one from an 04, and got the tire sensors from an 04. I was under the impression you had to have an 04-06 EVIC for 04+ Jeeps, and assumed...
