    How many miles?

    I don't think mine has ever had a real tune up, just the oil changed, and I drive it 120 miles and back 120 miles every couple of weeks. I have 163,000. Only repair has been the front CV joint (only matters for 4x4). I would feel comfortable going on a long trip in mine. Unless something is...

    Can I Wheel in this condition?

    Thanks a lot for the link. I already replaced the CV joint that connects to the transfer case, so I don't think that is the problem. Also, the boots on the CV axle look completely fine, which is why I'm not sure that they are the problem, but the sound is definitely coming from the front...

    Can I Wheel in this condition?

    So I think that I need to replace my front passenger side shaft/CV because it makes little clicking sounds when I drive slow on pavement. I found the part at NAPA for $93 dollars new. I basically need to know 1: is this the right part? 2: How do I buy a re-manufactured part through NAPA (I...

    clicking noise, not a cv joint

    Same problem here. Just a light clicking sound like if you squeeze an empty soda can and it crinkles a bit? Only when going under 10 mph?

    Reese Hitch Installation

    Ya. I'm sure. We even took it apart and re-assembled it. I make sure everything was exactly like the instructions. I must have screwed something up then. I swear I went over it several times. I even had a buddy with me and we both left with the conclusion that the product was designed wrong.

    New noise...

    Dangit. Mine has identical symptoms. It is a clicking from the front passenger side. It sounds like BB gun shooting a soda can, but only randomly at very low speeds (under 10mph). I hope its not an expensive part. I just changed my rear front drive shaft CV joint a couple months ago and...

    Reese Hitch Installation

    Its only about an inch off center. I wonder if that would screw stuff up while pulling a trailer. I mainly just bought it to get pulled out of mud when I get stuck. It worked I just think its strange that the parts listed in the instructions written specifically for a jeep liberty didn't work...

    Reese Hitch Installation

    Ya, it had Jeep 2003 Jeep Liberty listed on the box and it had instructions designated for a 2003-2006 jeep liberty. The instructions listed the bolt that was in the box, but that bolt didn't fit. I had to go buy a different one. I had to go to autozone because I was going on a trail run the...

    Reese Hitch Installation

    So the Reese Hitch from Autozone is pretty annoying. After Putting it together 3 times because the instruction were incorrect, I realized that the instructions were wrong. The hitch had to be mounted off center to fit. That was the first problem. The second problem was that it didn't come...

    high mileage sand dune riding

    I was the same as you a few weeks ago. I went wheeling anyway and what do you know... My CV joint was destroyed and I pushed my tire off the bead by the end of it. Luckily I had some money set aside to fix things, but if I hadn't, I would be sorry right now. Keep in mind I did stupid stuff...

    How to engage 4x4

    I have the Comand track, but it shouldn't be an issue because I only use it in grass or gravel. But thanks, I really could shred some stuff if I was doing this on pavement. I tried it all again and when I put the transmission in neutral (which I wasn't before putting the t-case in neutral) it...

    How to engage 4x4

    Thanks for the Help. I actually don't have the owners manual. I bought used and the jeep had a sort of irresponsible previous owner. I was not putting the transmission in neutral before changing to 4lo. Hope I didn't tear anything up...:pp:

    How to engage 4x4

    This is my first 4x4 with a real transfer case (I had an explorer with a push button). My jeep goes into 4x4 hi very easily, but getting it to go from 4hi to neutral (to go into 4lo) is very difficult. I end up pulling very hard or pulling at several angles until it finaly pops into neutral...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I changed my CV joint and it took way to long because I have no Jack or lift or mechanical knowledge.

    Can I drive with no CV

    Mine looks like it has everything but grease. I have the Main part, two little gasket things, a bag of hardware, and a cap for each end (the open end has a rubber boot) That is all that is in there.

    Can I drive with no CV

    I finally took of my front CV joint because the terrible clanging sounds were happening even in 2wd now. I now need to order the new CV joint. Can I still drive without tearing stuff up if I don't have the front drive shaft on the Jeep? Or should I park it till I get the new CV joint and...
