Well - replaced the upper and lower last weekend, and all is well! Hit a trail and had some pretty serious clunking in the rear end, which I believe I traced to the sway bar; meaning, the bolts were not torqued all the way, and it may have been slipping (since the holes in the bar are smaller...

Well I don’t exactly know what the specific problem was - water pump, thermostat, coolant, air in the system ... but it’s all been dealt with and now running great. New pump, new thermostat, proper coolant, and a good air purge after everything, and I’m sitting a just a hair below center on the...

I’ve only got the electric fan ... no mechanical. Can’t be sure if the radiator is Mopar, but I’d assume not. 175,000 miles on the truck. I’m going to start with a flush & fill and go from there. Water pump looks like a simple job, and something I’ll do in the near future if not immediately.

Hello! New member and Liberty owner here. I picked up a 2002 KJ Sport as a "fun" vehicle; not my daily driver. Just to be able to hit some desert spots where a normal car won't go, mild off-roading, etc. I've been reading a lot since I noticed the Liberty's rear will "sway" when on/off...
