Trying to do water pump on 06 3.7 with heavy duty cooling. Can’t get the fan clutch off. I rented the tools but can’t get the holding tool to work do to no room for it. Do I need to take the radiator out to remove the fan shroud? It would be so much easier without it there. At least I can see...

I have an 06 3.7 auto with the 2nd-4hi-n-4lo transfer case. No idea what model. Will a 242 from an 08 fit? Don’t need one but can get a steal on one so thinking of shelving it. Unless someone on here needs one.

So I’m going to hopefully get around to replacing the leaking water pump on my ‘06. It has the HD cooling. The fan clutch seems fine but I’m wondering if I should replace it with the water pump now or just wait until it actually gives me a problem. Just replacing what should be while I have the...

06 limited 3.7. Driving home tonight I noticed white smoke from under the hood at a stop light. Figured it might be another car’s exhaust I didn’t think too much about it. Then my lights dimmed and my battery warning light came on. I quickly pulled into a parking lot. There was quite a bit more...

‘06 limited 192,000 miles. After it’s been sitting, with the engine cold upon first start there’s a puff of blue smoke. Once it’s been started or engine is warm there’s no issues. The previous owner ran synthetic oil in it, it’s not due for an oil change yet so I haven’t done an oil change. I’ve...

My AC isn’t working. It was fine a month or so ago, then slowly quit cooling. It’s now been recharged and the line is cold now but still no cold air. Compressor kicks in and fuse is good. Everything seems good but there’s still no cold air. System was very low before recharge. Any idea what may...

I’m getting a rubbing/howling noise out of the rear end on right turns only. Driving straight or left turns there’s no issue. Happens with acceleration or not. Any ideas?

I’m going to get rid of my 02 due to rust. I picked up an 06 in pretty good shape. Unfortunately it has a dent in the center front of the hood. I’ll get a new hood and have it painted, but in the meantime I’m looking for something to cover it up. I’ve been looking at the t hood/bra covers...

Asking for a friend (yes for real). Replaced the lifters due to ticking and now there’s a clacking sound. No noticeable vibrations. Any ideas? Doesn’t sound like lower end.

I’ve got a little belt squeal at times. The belt looks pretty good so I’m figuring that the tensioner may be going. Of course I’ll replace the belt as well. I’m trying to get the parts but there are the 2 sizes (76 or 90 I believe). So am I crazy to think that a minor occasional squeal is the...

Do all ‘04’s have antilock brakes? I’m looking at one for my daughter ( I love my ‘02). It needs a front wheel bearings And o2sensor for sure. Not to big a deal. But the brakes feel much softer than mine. The pedal also travels further to the floor than mine. The brakes seem to function ok as...

I’m guessing not but will the bars from a ‘10 liberty fit an ‘02? Got a chance at some incredibly cheap. I don’t think they’d fit but thought I’d ask just in case.

My dad is considering a vehicle to leave behind in the winter and not take it to they’re winter home. It’s an 02 sport 4wd 70000 miles I guess it’s in immaculate condition and it’s been very well cared for. I’ve got my own 02 so I kind of know problem areas and I could work on it for him if...

So I’m replacing the upper ball joint on the ‘02 4x4 without antilock brakes. How is this task done?? I broke down and watched a YouTube video but mine is obviously different. The front bolt won’t come out since the hard brake line is in the way. I was able to move the top line enough to get the...

I’m replacing the sway bar end links and when I went to take the old one off it just spins. I’m using an impact now but it still just spins. By that I mean where the rod goes into the end link just turns. Any ideas how to get these off with the rod just spinning? I don’t have a cutting torch...

On the passenger side does the exhaust need to be removed or is there a trick to removing the front mounting bolt? The bolt head faces in towards the exhaust and I don’t see how it will come out with the muffler there. It’s all stock. Any ideas?

My ‘02’s radiator is leaking from the top front of the driver’s side so I guess it’s time for a new one as I asdume the plastic ones are repairable. So how bad of a job is it to replace one (trying to figure out how much time to set aside)? Any helpful tips? I’m not doing it immediately but...

It has some (I assume) lifter tick though. It’s only at low rpm’s. Seller claims he had the oil changed then it started to do it. Price is pretty low. It’s a 3.7 Auto 4x4 Any opinions? Thoughts on what the tick may be? I’ve got an ‘02 but it’s never had a tick.

Any idea what this code is. I did a google search but it says it’s the CPS but I would think it would run rough or not at all if it were a bad CPS. Is this possibly related to the no radio, fan speed, and gauges issue I’m having?

If I turn my fan up to 3 or 4, the radios shuts off and won't work. If you turn the fan back to 2 or lower, it turns turns the radio back on. So is my jeep haunted or does someone know what could be wrong?
