    05 Sport Motor sound??

    It’s odd that it doesn’t make the knocking sound for the first several minutes. I’m not good with internal parts. Would think that it would immediately start making the knock sound when the engine is started??

    05 Sport Motor sound??

    05 liberty sport 3.7 with 174,000. Had been running great. Drove last Thursday when it got down to single digit temps here. On Saturday I went to start it and it is running extremely rough and after running for 4-5 minutes it begins to have a loud knock sound like something is hitting the top of...

    What type of transmission

    I’m kinda on the fence. I can get the current transmission rebuilt for like $1700 or I can find a used one out of a junk yard. I was trying to compare prices and the salvage yard is the one asking which plug it had. Feeling like the rebuild is the way to go. Just a little more than id like to...

    What type of transmission

    Was doing about 70 on the interstate when something popped and I lost power to the wheels. Was able to coast off the interstate and into a gas station. Originally took it to an off road shop because I thought it was the transfer case. But after them pulling it and opening it up they said it was...

    What type of transmission

    Ok cap’n. I’ve been under it a few hundred times. What am I looking for? Is there 3 plugs stuck in it I don’t see while laying under it or is that to obvious? It’s a 2005 kj sport. Not sure what “build sheet” refers to. Sorry guys. Not a full time mechanic.

    Transfer case removal

    2005 KJ sport 4x4. Has a 231 J transfer case. Attempting to remove the transfer case for a rebuild. Can not locate all 6 bolts that connect case to transmission. I’ve read on this forum that two are hidden. The transmission mount (part kj3 7L) seems to be in the way. Does this part need removed...

    NEED HELP!

    So I’m currently stuck at a gas station because my Jeep won’t move. I was driving along the interstate at about 65. Suddenly the Jeep made a sound and felt like something may have broke. Immediately lost power to transmission. I coasted down the nearest ramp and into a gas station. Transmission...

    New front end

    What is a good set? Been looking around and still haven’t decided. Don’t want trash but don’t want to pay an arm and a leg either. I see that carports.com is a recommended on this site. Do they carry quality front end parts? Thanks!

    New front end

    Thanks every body. Considering what was said about doing an alignment after every replacement, I am pricing everything and will more than likely try to replace all at once. Hopefully nothing breaks before then.

    New front end

    I’ve started to notice the wear on the inside of the front tires. And definitely have noticed the stabilizer is pretty work anytime I hit a bump. The actual steering is pretty tight. Like no slack between steering wheel movement and movement of tires.

    New front end

    Hello. New here. Hope to not ask to many dumb questions. I have a completely stock 2005 liberty with 150,000 miles. Front is is pretty much shot. Dips when braking, needs alignment, creaks badly, walks some, follows any groove in the road, etc. so I’m thinking I need all new parts. This is a...
