    Liberty down after flat tow

    Flat towing with the trans in N risks destroying the transmission. Even through the tcase is in N, the tcase can still turn the output shaft on the trans and since the oil pump is not being turned in the trans, there is no oil flow within the trans.

    Liberty down after flat tow

    Yes it does, it needs to be in P.

    Ball jointed sway bar links

    I'd say that stiffened it up a bit. Later ZJ's came with something similar but the ball joints always go bad.

    Rear Wiper Blade Assistance.

    That's one thing that always amazed me, my original rear wiper still works perfect. I rarely used it when I was DD'ing the kj though. I see some people driving on sunny days with their rear wiper on....

    Problem after freeze.

    This question has been around since 2002. Cheap oil and short trips will make it a bit worse, otherwise, ignore it.

    Do you have a Curt 13044 Tow Hitch - Trailer Hitch on your KJ, please?

    I removed the hitches from my Jeeps and had new recall hitches installed. At the time, they were also giving away $100 visa cards so I made some decent money. If you wanted, you could remove the rusty hitch and see if Jeep will install a new one. The drawtite hitch that I put on my liberty in...

    Replacing 20028 TPMS Sensors with 29227

    It plugs into the OBD2 port but it can trigger and read the sensors as a stand alone unit. Honestly, I'm not sure if it clones or not. I need to play with it some more to figure out everything it can do. Something else I just noticed, the new sensor is noticeably lighter... I'm interested to...

    Replacing 20028 TPMS Sensors with 29227

    I imagine very few Liberty's still have a working TPMS, but I thought I would post this for those that many need it. Many years ago, I replaced the factory sensors with the 20028 Schrader TPMS sensors and all was well. Had no issues training them with the magnet and they lasted many years...

    Cooling Fan

    Since the 3.7 may drop a valve seat if it overheats, me thinks having both fans is a good idea.

    First (for me) Oil Change ....

    Discussions on engine oil are never ending. I use 5w-30 in my KJ and have been for many years.

    Confused by part description.

    Dorman 946386 is the rear driveshaft and has a u joint at each end. Swapping out ujoints is awfully easy unless they are really rusted in there.

    Engine Coolant Questions

    I've always used zerex G05. Its a pale yellow (color doesnt matter, FYI) and Ive never had any issues. Its readily available pretty much anywhere but I normally buy concentrate from Napa when its on sale. I mix 50/50 with distilled water. I've never flushed a cooling system and never will, but...

    Front hub with ABS on non-ABS Libby

    My parents 2006 Jeep WK is the same. Thing has limited slip diff's front and rear but the TC will kick in and the Jeep slides back to the bottom of the hill. My KJ has no issues in a foot (most we've had) of snow on their driveway. I've not tried removing the abs fuse but pushing the esp off...

    06 Libby 3.7 AC compressor cycles at all times

    My 2004 only turns the A/C on in the two defrost modes. The 2005 will also turn the A/C on in the floor only mode. You can take part the controls and put tape over the contacts so it only turns the A/C on in the modes you chose to not put tape over. I bought some 2005 controls so I could control...

    Front hub with ABS on non-ABS Libby

    No it wasn't. ABS was an option on the KJ and there are far more without ABS than with. I've always liked the KJ since it doesn't have ABS/TC/whatever crap.

    03 KJ Overheating after 30 minutes of driving. (Fixed)

    226F is a bit high for the fan to kick on. Before I added the HD fan, my electric fan always kicked on at 217F. Ive never seen my engine above 217F, Ive never seen it above 204F with the HD cooling. Ive got to wonder if the fan has lost its low speed.

    HD Cooling Fans Installed - Finally...

    Yeah, the CRD's are different than the 3.7. I could be completely wrong, but I thought all CRD's in the states (I see youre in the UK) got the electric fan AND mechanical fan.

    Front Drive Axle

    Ive heard its harder depending on the year. I guess they changed the routing of the exhaust? Maybe its if you have a 45rfe? Either way, I was able to push the driveshift up and above the tcase then drop the front of the shaft out.

    Front Drive Axle

    Those little boots degrade/crack and let the grease out. I replaced the boot before the grease was compromised. No issues with the joint itself in 140kmiles.
