I've wanted tinted windows for a long time. As per a previous post, I tried the Walmart tint stuff - turned out horrible so I pulled it off. A local car shop was offering tinting for just the front side windows which is all I needed for $65. They said almost all of the cars they tint get the...

I'm pretty handy, I can do finish carpentry that is above average, paint clean lines without masking tape, model clay and epoxy, play a few instruments, and do basic finger magic enough to entertain my kids. But after trying and failing miserably to apply window tint from Walmart to the front...

I picked up a new smaller 2 meter mobile rig and did an install in my 2004 Jeep Liberty. I have made a few other videos/postings of similar projects but this one is of a slightly different mount. The "mount" consists of a 5"x5" metal backing plate that is simply toggle bolted to the defrost vent...

This is just another option for installing an older Sirius radio in a Libby. I didn't like the previous location so this seemed to make sense. The spot to the left of the steering wheel on a small piece of plastic that pops out worked out fine. Now I just need to make more solid the mounting...

I'm inside and about to crash for the night but was wondering, does the stock radio for a 2004 Liberty drop down to 87.7 or 87.9? Just discovered my FM Modulator does and it would be nice to be on a freq that is not a commercial broadcast one. Dan

So the thought crossed my mind that it would be really cool to put some fog lights on my roof basket. Then I checked a few YouTube videos on it and one of the videos said to check with your state to find out what the laws are. So I did and it seems that in Maryland you're limited to no lights...

I have always done regular oil changes every 3,000 to 5,000 miles on all the vehicles I've owned. With that said... The Libby goes through about a quart every 1,000 to 1,500 miles. So at the 5,000 mile mark I've replaced 3 to 5 quarts of oil. So wouldn't oil changes in vehicles that are...

This worked. Didn't need to drill any new holes either - just used a couple longer screws. Dan

As I continue to tinker with the Jeep Liberty radio installs I put a Magnum 1012 transceiver in today. It fit much better than the larger 10 meter mobile rig I was trying to put in. These little radios are pretty cool - they can also be modified for CB usage. Here's a quick video of the...

For the small portable scanner that I keep in my Jeep Liberty I wanted to mount a remote speaker closer to my ears. After thinking about if for a while I found a location and made a little clip mount. As per usual here's a little video of the build and mounting. Remote Speaker for Scanner -...

Does anyone have an exploded dash diagram for a 2004 Libby? Thanks, Dan

I love building odd ball stuff like this. This idea came together in a few minutes after just looking at the stuff in my junk box. Floor Mount for Scanner Pro-97 - YouTube Dan

So I bought a very lightweight aluminum cargo basket off eBay and built it today. It was missing the directions and a bunch of washers. Most likely both are sitting in a warehouse in China where the thing was manufactured. In any event, to send it back to the seller would have cost $25 and...

I've been struggling to figure out a good place for my 2mtr rig in this 2004 Libby. While looking over old threads I found a post by Monkeyfart back in 2010. I like this idea but don't want to cut into my original equipment glove box. I've been looking online and it seems that I could get a...

I had a ScanGauge II in an old Toyota many years ago. I like data and it was cool to follow all of the information available. It's also nice to be able to check and clear codes if need be. The ScanGauge II right now is about $150.00. The smaller ScanGauge-e is $95.00 at Amazon. The smaller...

I ordered some Mopar tow hooks off eBay for $105.00 plus shipping. It took a while to get them on but I was able to do so without taking off the bumper. Here's a quick YouTube video of the install. 2004 Jeep Liberty Tow Hooks Installation - YouTube Thanks, Dan

I'm looking at cargo baskets for the roof. What do folks have? What do you like? It's always great to see pics if you have 'em. Many thanks, Dan

As I'm looking through the album sections here I found the bumper shackles below. That is my exact Jeep and color. I like these a lot but haven't seen any commercial bracket for these. Is this homebrew? Any suggestions? Thanks, Dan

Just replaced the tires with much quieter ones. The old set were mismatched brands and had varying degrees of wear with some old cupping. The new set is delightfully quiet up until about 50. That's when I hear an annoying noise that I think was all garbled up with the older beat up set of...

Looking at the following two bull bars for an '04 Liberty. Wondering if anyone has noticed any small mileage drops or more tire wear from the additional weight. 02-07 Jeep Liberty Black Modular Grille Guard Push Nudge Brush Bars | eBay 1999-2007 Jeep Liberty Black Grille Guard Push Bar...
