    Rear Brakes

    Sounds like what I need to do. I’d love to have a parking brake. The ABS and traction control not working does make you much more careful. I do Ford small streams and have towed a small trailer with 4wheeler on 2 hr long trips. I did also pull the rubber boot back and grease the cylinder as...

    Rear Brakes

    Thanks. I figured it wasn’t common, what’s got me thinking it may not be the caliper is that it appears to be happening to both sides almost evenly

    I ended up finding it on eBay. Got 2 and replaced them both

    Rear Brakes

    I’m having issues with the rear brakes on my 06. Calipers appear to be causing dragging that is getting progressively worse. My question is, is it common for calipers to go bad on these? Or could it be an issue with the proportioning valve? It’s got 215k miles, 80k that I’ve put on it. I’ve...

    Oil Drain Plug

    But yeah that’s a good idea. I’ll get what’s in there out and see if it works, if not I’ll tap it. Hopefully I have more time in a few months

    Oil Drain Plug

    I got the 103 but I’m worried it won’t fit now. Unfortunately I’ll have to wait another 9500 miles until I need an oil change to mess with it again

    Oil Drain Plug

    I was afraid of something like that. Whatever happened, it was done before I owned it. I will have to look into more next oil change when I can leave it out of service for a weekend

    Oil Drain Plug

    So I ordered a Fumoto replacement for my oil drain plug. As I changed the oil over the weekend, I realized that I could not remove the old one and not sure there were threads for a new one. So, I’ve always thought what was on it was odd. It is like a one piece clamp on style plug. It’s hard to...

    06 Liberty Diesel Idler Pulley

    I’ve had trouble with part numbers. Got one from O’Reilly and another from Auto Zone. Neither of them matched what I found online. Does that change your belt length?

    06 Liberty Diesel Idler Pulley

    Thanks, I know what part I need, the problem is that there seems to be none available. I was hoping maybe someone knew of a more common pulley that would work in its place

    06 Liberty Diesel Idler Pulley

    Update: I did finally find the part (I hope) on eBay but I’d still love alternative suggestions if there are any for something I could get locally and not have to wait until next week

    06 Liberty Diesel Idler Pulley

    An idler pulley locked up on my CRD this morning and I cannot find the part anywhere. Not any auto parts store online or otherwise. I assume it must be different than the gas engine and the availability is due to the uncommon nature of the liberty diesel. Does anyone know of anything that will...

    Hello, thinking of restoring a KJ for the wife...

    I have an 06 CRD that I bought with 140k. Replaced ball joints at 180k, transmission is starting to go out now at almost 210k. Other than that, just normal maintenance and it’s been good. Never had a problem finding any parts.

    Body Swap

    Ahhh I see. That looks pretty good but I’d worry about how small it’d be stopping the cab behind the front doors

    Body Swap

    Wondering if anyone has tried swapping a different body onto a Liberty frame and drive train. I’d really like a truck bed and think an old Jeep truck bed would be awesome on my 06 CRD. Curious if anyone has tried anything like that
