Steering wheel cover, JEEP logo. $20 from Autozone. Thickness feels better than the skinny stock wheel anyway

This also may be of help. I'm a visual guy and this step by step really helped How to fix Jeep Liberty blower motor (resistor) – with pictures Also, if it is the resistor you need to replace, I received some excellent advice here to swap out the stock part with a blower motor resistor from a...

That's because Libbys are not behind. We detonate 'em like the Seal team did with their downed helo in Zero Dark Thirty!

Thanks for all of the advice. After deciding to replace the struts (the old ones were shot. After I raised the hatch all of the way up, it would still drop about 3-4 inches) I bought a pair from Wisconsin Auto Supply on eBay for $22 shipped. The struts arrived this week and I installed them last...

On Friday I had the M35 OCR Recall addressed (parts came in). The dealer installed a wiring jumper. Also took the opportunity to have the oil changed. In and out within 2 hours. When I got home, my new rear-hatch gas struts had arrived in the mail. Replaced those in 15 minutes. The rear hatch...

Thanks! I will give that a try. Just so happens I have a small tube of silicone lubricant I bought for a catch can install on my other car. I'll give it a try later today.

Newbie-ish question, but one that might save me few dollars if the purchase is unnecessary. When the rear window is popped opened, should the struts fully extend the glass? My glass pops opens about 2-3 inches, and then I pull it open to the fully extended position. My guess is that the rear...

Weathertech makes some nice products. I just bought a Weathertech trunk liner for my Challenger and it fit like a glove.

Yep, totally agree. As with any theft deterrent, that's the idea whether it's wheel locks, steering wheel "clubs" or even car alarms. A thief with the right tools will easily defeat any consumer grade anti-theft device. But most thefts are crimes of opportunity and getting a petty (as opposed to...

Did the same for my Challenger and bought the Gorilla set. I replaced all the lugs because the stock Dodge lugs have a nasty tendency to strip or break, but I didn't realize it was a full set of locks at the time I ordered them. They do look and function much nicer than the stock lugs Dodge...

The cool thing about forums is the perspective gained from people across the country. I noticed your replies are all from the snow belt. Rust and breaking are elements I've never encountered in the 20 years I've used them on my vehicles, but I don't live in an area that gets snow or even too...

Installed McGard wheel locks to all wheels including the spare (came in a set of 5). Now I have one shiny chrome lugnut on each wheel. probably should have replaced the whole set. :shakehead:

I bought mine 4 weeks ago with 150k on the engine but didn't give it a second thought. The previous owner (who was the original owner) had it maintenanced on a regular rotation. The water pump and alternator have been replaced, but other than that, just the usual wear and tear type stuff. The...

Yup. I also drive 2002 KJ and I'm getting almost identical numbers. By my own measurements, I'm averaging 14.1 city/hwy combined and 19.5 pure highway. But I also drive with the AC on like all the time and I average 75 on the highway, so my numbers might improve marginally if I were to shut off...

I'm thinking with that olive paint, plasti-dipping the wheels black would give your KJ a military look. Stencil your social security number in white along the edges of the front fenders and you could probably roll onto any base without a credentials check LOL.

Have the battery tested. Any auto parts store will do it for free. If the battery is good, focus on the solenoid and distributor next.

Don't know if this will work, but sometimes the simplest solutions are the ones that work. Disconnect your negative battery terminal and leave it off for 15 -30 minutes. This might reset the ignition alarm.

I received my Coverking Spacer Mesh Seat Covers yesterday and immediately installed them. I ordered mine in black and gray. Sorry for the quality of the photos, camera phone Impressions: The seat and seatback portions fit really well. The material fit the cushions snugly, grips the contours...

LOL. Know that feeling. I forced myself to dream about it for 6 months to make sure it wasn't an impulse buy! But buying the Jeep was actually more challenging (pun intended) in that finding a good used KJ for a fair price, let alone a great price, from a seller who wouldn't flake on you at...

Always buy machine washable pads. If the pad is truly dirty and too far gone for machine washing, throw it away. They're not that expensive and the cost of the marring to your paint will be exponentially more than the cost of a $1 foam applicator pad. For really dirty pads, I use a Meguiars...
