    How to remove interior side panels for access to wiring?

    I installed a 4 pin trailer wiring kit on my '12 KK. Since I did not have OEM trailer wiring I need to run a hot wire to the back. I'm trying to keep it looking "professional" so I'd like to run the wires under the carpets, with the harness that's already there. It appears that harness is for...

    So, I picked up my "new" Jeep from the inspection station...

    As I was pulling out the dreaded check engine light came on and started flashing, along with rough running. They were closed, and I only live a few miles away so I went on home. Pulled the P-0301 code, cyl1 misfire, so I started looking things over and pulled #1 plug. Looked OK, but it's a NGK R...

    I'm ba-a-ack!

    Well, 1 or 2 of you might remember me, it's been a couple years. If everything works out, tomorrow I will own a 2012 deep cherry red Liberty with only 58k miles on it. V6 auto.

    Liberty drivetrain into a CJ, YJ, TJ, Wrangler?

    Still looking for a Jeep, maybe a Wrangler instead of a Liberty. Sort of looking for a project, I've come across some doozy's. So, is it possible to put a Liberty motor, trans, t-case into a Wrangler style Jeep, or is it a really bad idea, and why? I really liked the 6 speed in my Liberty, and...

    I think I got the "Liberty fever"!!

    Some of you might remember me, I had an '05 Liberty 4cyl, 6speed, that I traded for a Dodge Nitro, which I then traded for a new Ram 1500. Well, I miss that old Jeep. I've been looking for another one. I definitely want a 6 speed, and the V6. The 4 was gutless. Found a couple locally, both...

    Help! Removing intake on 4cyl.

    I need to remove the intake on the 2.4l to get at the valve cover. Does the intake split, or do I have to remove the entire thing? All the way down to the injectors.

    OK, so WTH does it mean?

    Got a P0513 code in my odometer, this is what it says, what does it mean? Is it simply from when I made a couple spare non-electronic keys? P0513-invalid Skim Key . P0513-skim System Invalid Key Code Received P0513-skim System Read Access To Eeprom Failure. P0513-skim System Write Access...

    OME/Ironman spring specs?

    My local shop is hesitant to install "lift" springs on a shock/strut due to the pressures involved. Their spring compressor works fine for stock, but heavier springs tend to bow out and possibly fly apart. So basically, are the springs longer than stock, and are the shock/strut recommended...

    Timing belt kit?

    Planning to flush coolant system and replace the timing belt/water pump soon, the kits I see come with belt, pump, tensioner, idler, and you have a choice of bracket or no bracket. I'm guessing it's best to just get the bracket? What about cam, crank seals? Gates, Dayco, GoodYear, or other?

    Are CV shafts supposed to be straight/level at correct ride height?

    When I was working on my '05, before I jacked it up, I looked at the CV shafts. They have a definite upward slope from transaxle to wheels. If I jack it up about 1.5" - 2" it levels them out nicely. Shouldn't they be level? :shrug: The struts/springs look like they've never been touched, so I...

    part# for t-case fill plug?

    My t-case fill plug has seen better days, the allen center is nearly stripped, and it didn't help that I had to use a chisel to loosen it. I welded a nut on it to get me through a bit while I locate a replacement. None of the local auto parts stores had anything near that oddball size, which...

    Front bumper?'s

    I need to replace the front bumper, probably just going with a replacement stock type. Any good recommendations? I see some pop rivet looking fasteners holding it together, source for them?

    Dash lights don't dim?

    When I turn the dash light dimmer, they just stay at the bright setting, and the dome lights don't come on when I get to that setting. Dome lights come on when opening the doors. What to check? I kind of hope it's the multifunction switch, than I can get the new one that adds fog lights.:gr_grin:

    Fuel filter 4cyl?

    Just checked several auto parts sites, and no one lists a fuel filter for the 2.4L 4 cyl motor. What gives? No filter?

    2.4L valve cover r&r.

    I have motor oil in the air box, and seriously worn spark plugs. Since I need to remove the TB to change the plugs, I'm also going to remove the valve cover, clean the internal baffles (see, I've done research!:bleh:) replace the PCV valve, clean the PCV hose, and replace the hoses as needed...

    Greetings from snowy cold NW PA.

    Just picked up a '05 Liberty 2.4L 4cyl 6 speed. Researching what I need to know. Mostly looking for mileage, and dependable winter transportation.
