    A/C Clutch Diagnosis Question

    Dealership tells me my a/c clutch is bad and that you can't get just the clutch. (The internet says otherwise, but maybe that's not OEM) so they want to do the whole compressor to the tune of $885 parts & labor. They go on to say that you can feel the play on the shaft, to which I replied...

    Wheel Alignment?

    Am finally able to drop off the '02 Liberty Ltd for the hitch and another recall. Want to have them do a front end alignment while it is there, as I see some odd tire wear going on (inner edges of front tires worn more). Is there any reason to do a "4 wheel alignment" or will a "front wheel...

    Ball joint replacement cost?

    With 155,000 miles on it, the front end of my '02 is getting a little squirrely. I need a front end alignment because I can see that the inside edges of the front tires are wearing faster than the rest. Also if on the highway at speed, say 70, and I hit the brakes, I can feel some wobble in the...

    Which replacement shocks for non-lifted 2002 KJ?

    Howdy boys and girls! With almost 108,000 miles on the clock, my original shocks are no longer providing any damping, so it is time to replace them. What should I get? I don't tend to do anything offroad more challenging than fire roads. Thanks in advance!

    Wiper Blades?

    At 58,000 miles, I am overdue for my 3rd set of wiper blades. Last time, I went with OEM and the price at the dealer was unbelievably high. I decided to try them anyway to see if they were worth it. IMHO, they were not. Anyone have any particular recommendation for replacement blades? I'd like...
