my 02 crd sport model (in the UK so export) had some factory off road extras I believe from new, and one of those was factory metal rear tail light guards. They're cast and plated chrome.

is the frequency drive wheel or prop shaft? If it sounds like going over cats eye's it makes me think it has the frequency of the wheel rotation and the 'dull' sound of that makes me think it is the tyres - I have had some strange effects that have disappeared with a tyre rotation and I'd be...

Alternator clutch? If I remember right, mine is noisy when the clutch engages the alternator, normally switches on every minute or so and lasts for about 10 seconds - but I don't know if mine is normal or not - it's just always done it since I've had it. Maybe your battery charge was low on the...

I had the same, and really I think it is one of those jobs where you try something but decide that'll take too long, then try a dozen other things and half a day later you realise that if you had just stuck with the first thing it would have been off already. If the metal sleeve of the bush has...

Don't know if yours is a diesel, but my CRD does (or did) something similar - in that the oil thinned out every 3 -6 months and needed an oil change. In my case, over fueling diluting the oil, due to injector blow by - once injectors re-seated, thinned oil issue stopped. It increased an engine...

yep, that's what happened to mine - didn't realise heat was the issue with the boot (had to look up BUNA - I'm guessing that's the material?). The dirt ingress made short work of the joint which seized and sheared the splines off. I didn't even think of the gearboxes as possible weak links -...

Especially for people who may be new to KJ's and have heard the chorus of "not real off roader!" etc. An amazing car I think: I always suspect it was purposely held back by design to protect Wrangler market share/ prestige. The weakest link in a the stock 4x4 is arguably the front propeller...

I didn't know that about the Eaton - but that replaces the whole carrier. So I can't see any reason why earlier models are listed as incompatible, so as I've not bought the ring and pinion yet (I will try and re use existing first), I think I'll try it. I'll be sure to report findings back in...

I have a 2002 Crd 2.5 liberty. The rear axle needs rebuilding, and while I'm at it I plan to install a no slip Lockrite locker. The original diff basket is the traclok type, which I'd rather replace than rebuild (part of the reason why the axle needs rebuilding is the disintegration of the...

Thanks guys! I have them ordered with a dealer - 2-3 days before I can pick them up. I don't know why. Same situation for the shop the Jeep is in if they order them. I tried to get dimensions from the shop but they refused to fit anything other than genuine parts when it comes to the bolts -...

Do you know the dimensions of the bolts? I have 2 days to get them - no dealer within 200 miles - car is in the shop so I can't measure, they are doing me a favour but I have to get parts. I cannot leave it there while I wait for postage. I am stuck in a remote area. I may very well be able to...

Hi all, new member first post. Does anyone know what bolts are needed for the lower rear control arms? I need all 4 of them as the old ones are too corroded. The car is in the shop and I have to provide the new parts. I need them within 2 days so I can't get original parts so I need to get...
