OK...so Chrysler says you "must" use the special red (HOAT) anti-freeze, but not one auto parts store around here sells it..... I made a command decision to substitute that product with Prestone Universal 5 year / 150,000 mile anti-freeze. Prestone claims it's good for any make or model...

Just kicking around an idea here. Will be going through emissions inspection tomorrow morning with my '05 KJ Renegade, after which I'll be good to go for another 2 years. I'm presently running with a Thrush Welded Hi-flow muffler connected to the stock exhaust piping.....(have to have a tail...

A friend just picked up a nice used '97 Cherokee 4 door sport, blinkers aren't working, he has no owner's manual with it, and needs a diagram of the fuse panel. Could anyone copy and post a scan of their fuse panel out of the manual, or direct me to where I could down load the manual...

Goodyear Duratracs in 245/75-16.... $171.00 + tax mounted & balanced......(still waiting on the 5th "spare" to come in).....

Access to the few select New Jersey beaches opens on Sept. 15th....(and ends on May 15th, 2011).... I have an access permit for Corson's Inlet State park at the southern end of Ocean City, and since opening day I've been out on the beach 3 times now.... Here's a collection of photos I took...

I'm getting ready to pull the hook on a new set of Goodyear Duratrac's, but can't decide if I should just stick to 245/75-16's recommended by the manufacturer of my 2.5" lift, or if I could push it and go with 265/75-16... Right now I'm just sitting on the lift, but I do have the ability to...

I have a K&N stock replacement air filter that fits the stock air box. It came out of my '05 Renegade, however to the best of my knowledge it fits all 2002 to 2007 Liberty's. It cost me $45.00 new, used for 3 years, approx 20,000 miles, have cleaned and reoiled every 10,000 miles, came with a...

I'm looking to improve my the air situation on my '05 Renegade. Presently have a cheap compact little POS with a cigarette lighter plug and short little hose. I want to do better, but I'm not sure if I want to mount one onboard, or keep it portable. I'm looking at two different models with...

Getting into this "Member's Journal" thing kinda late, but better late than never.....;) Purchased new in October of 2005 as a left over, the build sheet says what it came with..... What's been added...(or removed).... since...... Pounded the front pinch welds Trimmed front bumper Mounted...

Just picked up a set of Hella High Performance Xenon Blue lamps for my '05 Renegade...(HB5 / 9007)....at Advanced Auto Parts... Put the right side in first then clicked on the heads to see how much of a difference there was, even in the bright sun light you can clearly see how much...

In an effort to find a better than stock bulb for my reverse lights I purchased two different brands of 3157 clear bulbs, then did a side by side comparison of both with the stock bulb original to my Liberty..... Sylvania Silverstar, and PIAA H.I.D. The PIAA H.I.D. bulbs are without a...

Does anybody know if there's a higher intensity replacement bulb for the backup lights on a KJ.....? The stock lights on my Libby suck, I really don't want to mount an outboard light, so if anyone knows of a better bulb please post the make, model number, and a source where I can buy...

I've gained so much information concerning my Jeep Liberty tolling this, and one other forum, it's amazing how much I did not know about this vehicle until recently. Just the other day I happened on a thread that discussed changing the differential oil in the axles, and it indicated it should...

Over the last several weeks I've been paying close attention to how different Jeep owner's modify their vehicles. Not just Liberty's, but also Wrangler's, Cherokee's, Grand Cherokee's, and Commanders. I've come up with 6 categories I believe covers every general style class from stock to...

Over the last few trips under my '05 Renegade, I've been noticing the effects of close to 5 years of driving on the beach, over winter time road salt, and the occasional creep through salt water during Nor'Easter storms. Mopar rockrails are not immune to the corrosive effects of salt, and...

I have a set of Jeep / Mopar rear splash guards for '02 to '07 (KJ) Jeep Liberty. My wife's cousin ordered them for his Sport, but traded it in before he installed them, so he gave them to me. I can't use them since they don't fit the Renegade Part # 82209337 Medium Gray, rear, with Jeep logo...

Placed the order on Monday, hoping to see it on my front porch some time next week. Got a buddy I work with at the Fire Dept that has his own garage, and knows how to do suspension lifts, got his own spring compressor too. The only thing he can't do is the re-alignment, but I'll get the guy...

Now that I did the trim job on the front bumper..... I decided to engineer myself a front skid plate using a scrap piece of pre-bent aluminum diamond plate and a pair of heavy duty "L" brackets. The brackets had to be heated, bent, cut, and re-drilled for the mounting holes. I used two of...

I read on this forum and some of the others that guys "trimmed" their front bumpers.......:confused: I'm curious about this mod, and was hoping a few of you with trimmed bumpers would post a few frontal shots of your handy work, and explain how it's done, and what benefits it surves...

I've tried CLR, and a handful of other products designed to remove hard water spots from auto glass, but nothing I've tired seems to work. I'm thinking I may have to use a buffer and some sort of compound to get rid of this spotting. I live at the Jersey shore with constant salt spray from...
