Yeah, I know you thought that, but no i'm strictly stock. Hopefully sell in a year or two. That Jeep Gladiator is getting under my skin. Getting tired of crawling under and replacing suspension parts.
Thanks I never thought of the e brake. Here's hoping that's what it is, but knowing my karma...
OK, so after installing new rear shocks, coil springs and rear upper control arm, (which was a ROYAL PIA) a new sound developed after getting on the highway. A repetitive sound whose rhythm goes with the speed of the car. IIt got louder the faster I went and became loud enough to alarm me. I...
I want to install new rear shocks and coil springs, but I'm debating about the rear uca. I've got 120k on a 2007 libby. When I went in for an inspection the dealer said it's just about ready for a new rear uca. Is it? Maybe mileage wise but what are the symptoms? Or maybe tomorrow it will fall...
Tom, When I got to the drivers side and pulled the wheel I saw the bottom of the strut had rusted away. ..the spring was resting on the fork. Ha Guess I really needed these.
I have to choose what is next. The rear shocks and springs or the inner and outer tie rods. I'm leaning on the tie rods...
Ok guys, so I decided to tackle the front struts. It took me forever to get the passenger's side completed, but now I know the trick of it....and I don't think this is made clear anywhere because I've searched and looked in vain.
The major and only problem was separating the bottom fork from...
It's truely amazing what you find yourself doing when you need to save a couple bucks. You do what you gotta do....even the impossible sometimes. Maybe in another lifetime God will grant me easier circumstances and I can just install and be done. Then my time CAN be used for more important things.
Guys, I've read all over the forum that when replacing ruca only the mopar boomerang will last past 6 mos. So I was thinking of getting a cheap aftermarket uca for about $110 and pressing out the bushings and ball joint and replacing with mopar parts. Does any one know if this is a feasible...
thanks Bob, very helpful with the part #s. As for the bilsteins all I can find are HD. Are there medium duty bilsteins? Feels good to get everything sorted out...
Thanks Bob....very helpful with the details So I'll spread out the shopping list...now just have to hunt around for a good suspension shop. Feels good to get it all sorted out.
I appreciate your time and responses Tom. You are the one with the knowledge and experience.I respect what you have to say and I hear you loud and clear.
Ok so I see the cost diff is nominal. If I go this route with bilsteins and OEM specifically which model #s. Will I have trouble having a shop...
thanks for all the responses....I'm still leaning toward moog or monroe quick struts because of economy and ease of instal.I've heard bilsteins can be harsh and not a comfort ride. So if monroe quick struts are same as stock or worse what assembly would you get for the front? Am I limited to...
Hi Guys, please help me out here. I've been reading all there is on suspension parts and I still have questions. I have an 07 Liberty with 110,000. Time for new coils and shocks/struts. This is strictly a street car so I'm not interested in any lift. I'd like to put in Monroe quick struts in...
thanks M38 Bob, that information helps me a lot. I plan on doing this myself, although I'm surely not a mechanic I think I'm able to do this. If you have any helpful tips I'd appreciate it. Thanks again
