    Upper control arm issue

    I had the same issue myself, the bolt in the rear was rusted in place. I had to remove my grill, rad, airbox, and a few other things in the way. I got a long punch about 12in long and a 5 lb mini sledge with a short ass handel and beat it out of there. I tried cutiing it and heating it but got...

    Engine swap

    Well to finish this thread I opted to change the tone ring and reluctor wheel. Here are a few pics of the the fun, threw it back together and it fired up almost instantly. Ran a bit rough for a few min as the computer was reset and all data cleared, but it soon smoothed right out and runs like a...

    It cranks fine ,wont stay running

    Turn your key on and off 3 times quickly and then 3rd time leave it in on but not start and it will show your codes in odometer. If you see P0340 or P1391 its most likely cam or crank sensor.

    Changing Radio

    Unfortunately there are really no direct replacement radio/nav system. Im looking at doing this very upgrade myself soon and unfortunately its going to take a little work with a dremel tool or something like that to make it work and look nice. You need to look for a double din radio/nav you like...

    Help with ‘02 KJ Mystery Problem

    There is a very small possibility that you have a messed up bearing in the front diff on right side and when you turn the wheel hard one way its putting stress on bearing causing it to move slightly out of its races. And then giving drag on one wheel, could shift back into place and go away then...

    Help with ‘02 KJ Mystery Problem

    Im going to agree with the previous post now that you given a better description of whats happening, 4 wheel drive wouldnt cause drag on only one wheel. I missunderstood what u meant by drag on the wheel so a wheel bearing possibly and there is usually some noise to go with that as well. Also...

    Help with ‘02 KJ Mystery Problem

    If you are stuck in full time and have select track moving the wheel hard side to side should cut the 4 wheel drive which from what you say is the opposite of what you are experiencing. Maybe something is happening to make it work in reverse, it engages 4 wheel drive when it should be cutting...

    Help with ‘02 KJ Mystery Problem

    I have selec trac, called it sensa trac in another post by accident. It automatically disengages your 4wheel drive as soon as you hit 50km/hr or if it notices allot of steering wheel input with little speed like in parking lots. That way your not fighting the 4 wheel drive when parking because...

    2002 Limited 3.7L Engine Repair/Replace Advice

    Honestly it sounds like that garage is trying to take you for a ride, Ive been thrashing these 3.7l in jeeps and trucks for the better part of 20 years, and I have definitely blown a few of them up in some pretty interesting ways and I have not seen a cracked block yet. I would definitely get a...

    2003 Liberty w/ V6, Power steering hose?

    Only early model jeeps 2002-2004 that had select-track had that hose. Its meant to cut the 4 wheel drive in parking lots when it notices allot of steering wheel imput and low speed. Your select-track 4x4 setting will not work correctly without sensor in hose. Maybe 2005 as well but im not sure...
