I replaced the compressor and accumulator,etc. I had Pep Boys pull vacuum and charge. It worked great the first few days, we went on vacation, returning I noticed it wasn't blowing as cold, started to worry there may be a leak. But I then noticed it would **** cold at low vehicle speed or...

Long story short, I replaced the entire suspension two summers ago and had it aligned by Pep Boys when I completed the job along with two new tires. I noticed ride quality and tire wear thereafter about 6 months later. I do not drive the KJ much, put it off and thought I'd either done something...

1. As some of you may have read on my other thread, I threw P871 back in May, got it cleared but kick down in 4th seems to be missing, I can floor it to pass traffic at 65-80 and it barely picks up speed. No stuttering, slipping etc. I changed the fluid and filter, no material in the pan. I left...

She's been solid, I paid $2K, have about another $2500 in her with brakes, suspension, tires and other misc. parts. As I posted in another thread, I'm hearing some valve chatter, get smoke only when in 4WD and noticed the smell today when I had her loaded down with building materials. Trying...

I used my build sheet, cross referenced multiple parts sites to determine Spicer 5-1310x are to be the correct model for my 2003 Jeep Liberty Sport. Installing I noticed a lot of side to side, up & down play. I took it for a test drive and have a horrible vibration below 10MPH, I did not...

I came across quite a few threads here and on Lost Jeeps, what's the consensus? Who's got the best method?

I was gaining on a curve a bit too fast, downshifted manually to second to engine brake. Threw P0871 an now it's not shifting through all the gears. I tried to clear code, but it persist. I see some chatter on Lost Jeeps where CRD guys have had the same issue clearing the code. Hoping a clutch...

I've enjoyed my KJ, it's been solid for me. I keep the oil changed, the PO, a former coworker did the same. But, starting to hear some valve chatter and considering down the road replacing the engine to give her new life as I don't do car notes, prefer the ease of wrenching myself which the KJ...

Let me preface with I recently rebuilt the rear brakes and front driveshaft so the Jeep sat for about three weeks. Prior to this with daily driving, I never noticed any major leakage when parked etc. I did change the oil after the above work. I started by inspecting the bottom engine...

I took my KJ to a reputable 4WD shop to have my recent suspension update inspected as I've had some pops, creaks. All components checked out. However, the front driveshaft has a lot of play and is the culprit of some of the noise. Which REMAN brand provides the best quality or is it best to...

2003 KJ Sport: On my commute home, I noticed smoke and then smelled the fluid. I get home to see the rear drivers side Jeep center cap has melted off it's mounts, lugs are super hot, rotor looks gnarly. Oddly, I notice fluid in both rear fender wells. From my brief inspection, the hoses...

I've replaced everything front and back minus inner tie rods. I am noticing inner wear which is normally indictive of outer tie rods etc. New set of tires, less than 3K miles. At a loss as to why this is occurring again, so soon. Video: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Av5WYhcYlOzDkM0OGGVZnhIdPD1ZDQ

I've noticed some coolant residue on the tank, below, for a few months, but the level has remained unchanged. I flushed, replaced pump, hoses this time last year. I checked the oil every change for milkiness, no telling coolant residue. The temp gauge always hands steady a tick below the...

I've noticed for some time I have a rattling sound coming from the center dash/transmission tunnel area when in Drive, but disappears when I place into Neutral? Torque converter?

I've been cutting trees, using 4WD to haul the logs about 200ft to the alley. Noticed last week white smoke with an odd smell, not the usual sweet you'd associate with coolant in the oil etc. I changed the oil the next day, no foam, no milky residue. Just black oil. The PO, my former coworker...

Any issue with this rims backspacing and offset values? Looking to refresh my wheels, lose some unsprung weight in the process. https://www.quadratec.com/p/pro-comp/black-series-69-wheel-jeep-wangler-yj-tj-cherokee-xj-grand-cherokee-zj

My KJ has a more noticeable "thunk" in the drive-train post suspension update, when placing into gear, more so when it goes from 3rd-4th if I give it more throttle, hard jolt. It's always done this since I purchased, but more pronounced since the suspension update. I just assumed at the time...

I replaced my entire front and back suspension/bushing two weeks ago. New Bilstein shocks with Moog springs, 2 weeks later, my driver's side rear has 1" of sag with. I measured center cap to top inner fender, 19" on both fronts and 20" passenger rear (is that normal, I see nothing binding to...

Hi all, bought my coworkers 03' yesterday and the A/C isn't working, blows hot. I looked around in the stickys to see if a common issue and how to troubleshoot. I seem to recall on a forum some time back when I first started contemplating purchasing the KJ a common failure with the fan...
