Great, you will be rolling with 4WD in no time. I have to admit when I had a similar notice I was convinced it was my intermediate shaft because I had already done the rear joint with a subpar parts. I did a big breakdown, pulled the CV axle and intermediate shaft only to find out I had the...

as long as you want until you want 4H or 4L. They sold these in RWD only -- so you will develop empathy for those who did not pay for 4WD. I chased so many noises and it ended up being the rear joint on that front drive shaft. You can order a full replacement and if you do Google how to...

How is the boot on the rear of the front drive shaft. That boot gets crack and lets water in. Driveshaftparts.com is where a lot of us get the parts to rebuild the rear joint on the drive shaft. Also, you can removed the front drive shaft and drive without it (just don't put in 4 wheel...

report back how it did.

Bend out the tabs in the socket for a temp fix. Buy new sockets for a lasting fix. I think I got a couple of dorman replacement parts and they have done great.

Welcome to club 06! My ball joints failed. The rear joint of the propeller shaft also fails often.

Look at how this guys engine looks because of the power steering leak:

That area is wet in mine and its the power steering hose. Wipe down the back of the power steering pump where the hoses go in. It is a very slow leak, hardly moves the level of the power steering reservoir. The other fun leak on the front is the front main seal and it will send oil down the...

The high pressure power steering hose is prone to leaking. I need to replace mine too.

Consensus around here is to rebuild the back cv - https://www.driveshaftparts.com/ME807 Drive Shaft Parts also sells the full axle, and has tips on measuring it.

What I did with my used Liberty, is I used my miti vac fluid vacuum to suck out about 3 quarts ever oil change and gradually renewed the fluid. After the fluid looked and smelled better, I dropped the transmission pan and replaced the filter. That way there was no shock to the system.

of course rooting for the KJ all the way

second one is out:

Sorry!

I came across this yesterday. They have less than $10K to buy a jeep then modify it. First episode has 2 Liberty's. Seems like it might be fun to keep track of.

My starter was intermittent like that for a couple of years. Early on I could get it to start by reaching in and jiggling the starter wires. I assumed it was the connections. Cleaned them up and it did not change, still occasionally did not start. After a couple of years like this it finally...

Its common for a little fluid to come out the first time it is removed. I swore my noise was not coming from the rear of the prop shaft too. But that is where the problem was. You will be rolling in 4WD again soon!

Sounds like my noise but it was the rear propeller shaft cv joint. I went so far to pull out the intermediate shaft of the front differential before I listened to the experts here and dropped the prop shaft (you can drive in 2 wheel drive without it). Drop the front propeller shaft and see...

Its not that hard. Removing the prop shaft is not that bad. Jack up one front tire so that you can rotate it, and then use your 4WD selector to freeze the alxe for when you need to break or tighten the bolt. There is a sticky on it once you click KJ General Discussion...

My check engine light cleared today confirming for me it was caused by the compressor causing the serpentine belt to bind
