    42RLE Transmission Filter

    There are several sites where you can input the V.I.N. and search for specific parts. This should nail down the filter for you. Not a recommendation, but here's one: https://www.moparpartsgiant.com/

    Your knowledge required please

    The bolts that hold the cover on often get corroded and are hard to get out, or worse, snap off. I just bought new ones to be safe. They are expensive for what they are, but I was lucky to get the original ones off the first time and I don't like to take chances. Also a dab of anti-seize...

    Can it be done?

    Firestone has a lifetime alignment plan. I paid $120 in 2007 and that's it. Alignment can be checked every 6 months or 6000 miles for life. I think I've had it done about 16 times (works out to $7.50 a time so far, less as time goes by). The 2022 cost is $200 but they often have coupons that can...

    2006 Liberty 4x4 with 3.7L - Scheduled Maintenance Is Critical

    I have an after-market transmission pan with a drain plug and I change the transmission fluid at every oil change, which is every six months. Every six changes I drop the pan and put a new filter on.

    04 KJ 42RLE Won’t go into park.

    Hi - My simple answer is "I don't know", but seems like a better problem to have than "put it in drive but won't move". Better meaning it might be fixable without a transmission rebuild. My thought . . . . not sure about the 42RLE (which I have) but most traditional transmissions have a...

    Somewhat Better Tire For 2011 Liberty

    I've used Dueler A/T Revo's since 2007. The original Revo's developed road noise after some time, but the latest tire, the Revo 3 seems to have that fixed. For me, they are terrific tire, just not cheap.

    Help with 02 sensor!

    Yes PIA I did my passenger rear O2 sensor over the summer. I have about 6 O2 sockets and specialty wrenches. Nothing worked. If I could get some- thing on it, not enough room to swing. So I came at it from the rear and used a recipricating saw to cut the head off. Then I used a long...

    Split Style Rear Backing Plates

    Hi Guys If this has been mentioned before, I missed it. Dorman has a Split-style backing plate, or as they call it, dust shield. The price for a pair is less than one side of the original style, with shoes etc. from Mopar. There are pros and cons to this style and I really don't...

    Couple questions about doing front CV Axles

    Just did mine . . . . I just did both front drive shafts. I know there's a lot of opinions about drive shafts, but I choose new ones from Autozone. With a discount they had, I got them for $60 each and no core charge. They match exactly and time will tell if I made the right...

    Replacement Exhaust Hanger

    Hi Guys On the passenger side, near the transmission, the exhaust pipe has a welded hanger attached (see attached pic). This hanger looks very corroded and I'm wondering if there is an aftermarket bolt-on hanger replacement. At some point I'll need to replace the cats and...

    Front Driveshaft Needed ?

    Hi Guys I've read many times that our KJ can be driven with the front driveshaft removed. By front driveshaft I mean the shaft from the transfer case to front differential. I just want to verify this is correct and there's no ill effects of driving with it removed. Thanks . ...

    Where is tone ring?

    Hi Guys I have a KJ 4x4 and I'm wondering where the ABS tone ring is for the front axles? Is it part of the bearing assembly, or is it attached on the end of the axle shaft? I'm looking to buy replacement axle shafts and "tone ring not included". But if it's part of the bearing...

    FM Ipod Adapter to Android?

    Hello All I have the OEM Ipod FM Adapter (modulator) installed and it works pretty good. But . . . . I'd like it to work with an Android device too. I know I can make a cable up, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a stock cable that would work? Or a converter from Apple 30 pin...
