    Engines4Less

    Hello Josh. I purchase an engine from FLEngines4Less.com last August for my 2004 Liberty (248k miles on the original motor). I live in South Florida, so I let them do the install. Like you, I was skeptical because of the price. When I dropped off the Liberty, they gave me a tour of the shop...

    Please help. Where to get another non-used engine?

    The new motor runs good. I have mud tires on the car with stock gears, so the power although better, I would say what I noticed is that the power comes on much smother. I haven't checked gas mileage yet as I was waiting to break the motor in first. I did my first oil change at 1000 miles like...

    Please help. Where to get another non-used engine?

    I too recently replaced my engine. I struggled with weather to go with a junk yard motor or a new motor. I ended up going with the new motor which I bought from flengines4less.com in Hialeah FL. I only have 1,100 miles on the new motor so far, but runs great. I got a full rebuild (they did...

    Fuel Pump Connector and Hose size - 2004 KJ 3.7

    Hello Ksat. Thanks for the reply. The fuel pump currently works fine, it's just very old, has lots of miles and I would like to replace it before it decides to make me replace it. I have wanted to replace it for a long time, just hard to find the time. I bought a replacement pump (ACDelco)...

    Hello All. I have a 2004 KJ with a 3.7. Does anyone know the connector size for the two connectors that come off of the fuel pump and plug into the quick connect tubes inside of the tank? Also the size / diameter of the corrugated tube? Below is a picture of the connectors and tubes I am...

    AC Compressor question....

    Absolutely. Great advice. I recently replaced my entire system excluding the evaporator (I just flushed it out). I picked up an entire UAC system from Rockauto. The first compressor I received had a bent pulley, so had to return and wait for another one. I also replaced the two pressure...

    AC Compressor question....

    If your compressor is shot internally, you will need to change out the condenser and I would definitely change out the accumulator while you have the system apart.

    Belt length to bypass Power Steering pump temporarily

    Hey All. I found a belt that will work to bypass the power steering pulley. I have a 2004 Liberty and an 82" belt worked perfectly. The belt I got was for a 2018 Genesis G8 with a 3.8 Liter motor (6 rib, 82"). I'm going on a long trip with the Liberty and wanted a backup just in case the ps...

    Fuel Pump Recommendation for a 2004 KJ 3.7

    Unfortunately I can't find a mopar pump. The dealer says they are discontinued. Anything you see on ebay, etc..I'm assuming in fake. If anyone knows of a way to get a genuine mopar pump, please let me know.

    Fuel Pump Recommendation for a 2004 KJ 3.7

    Hello All. Does anyone have any recommendations on a fuel pump for a 2004 3.7. I've been looking at the pumps on Rockauto, but based on some of the posts on this website, it seems like they can be hit or miss? Anyone have any experience using a Walbro fuel pump (Not sure if they make one...

    Help me choose a tire size (TJ MOAB Rims)

    The wheels are 8" Pro Comp (51 Series Rock Crawler) Flat black with 3.75" backspacing. The model # is 51-5865F. There are no problems with clearing the brake calipers. Probably around 2 inches clearance in the rear and 1/2" to 3/4" in the front. As Tom said, the stock backspacing is 5". The...

    Help me choose a tire size (TJ MOAB Rims)

    I have Cooper Discoverer STT Pro 30x9.5 15 mud tires on 8" Pro Comp wheels with an OME 2.5 lift, and in my opinion they do look just a little to small, but like you, I didn't want to do a re-gear. Based on the specs from Tire Rack, my tires are a tad larger than the Toyo Open Country...

    Winch mount on stock bumper.

    Thanks. Yes, agreed. I would like to connect the two square tubes. After I get the end caps welded in, that will be my next upgrade to the mount.

    Winch mount on stock bumper.

    So I decided to build a winch mount retaining my stock bumper. I used two 2x2 1/4" tubes and a universal winch mount from Harbor Freight which are welded and bolted together with grade 8 bolts for added strength. To mount it, I did something very similar to what Nate from Dirt Lifestyle did, I...

    Is the stock stereo interchangeable between 2002-2007 KJ's?

    Thanks for the info. How much would you want for the stereo? I probably wouldn't have a use for the the Sat adapter. Thanks.

    Is the stock stereo interchangeable between 2002-2007 KJ's?

    Hello All. I'm planning on replacing my aftermarket JVC stereo in my 2004 KJ with a factory stereo. I will probably pick one up at a junkyard or on Ebay. My question is, will a stereo out of any year KJ work in my 2004 KJ? Although the stereo's have minor differences in appearance, I noticed...

    8.25 DTT Carrier Install Specs –Ring Bolts, Preload, Backlash, Bearing Caps

    Hello All. I’m installing a Detroit TrueTrac in the rear 8.25 on my 2004 KJ. I’m having a difficult time finding the torque specs for the carrier.
