    Rear outlet (power)

    I checked the wires that go to the power point and they are definitely 16 or 18 ga. It looks like the lead (to the power point) is a "pig-tail" from, perhaps, the tail or brake light. That might be the reason for the 20 amp fuse if it's the brakes light circuit. Whatever, I changed the 20 to a...

    Rear outlet (power)

    How much 12 volt power (amps) can the rear power outlet on a '04 Liberty handle? I have a 12 volt cooler that I have plugged in but the plug-in (male and female) both get very hot. The draw is about 4 amps so I'm wondering if that's the limit or possibly the connections are not good. What...

    Roof boxes

    I have a 2004 Liberty with the "factory" roof cross bars. I'm looking for a hard shell roof top carrier that fits on the factory cross bars. What box will give me some additional space (approx 12 cubic ft) and have as little affect on wind resistence (fuel mileage) as possible? Thanks AJ

    Just got finished changing the oil in my 2004 Liberty. Problem is: Had been using Mobile 1 5/30 for the last 10000 miles. When I changed this time I used the last quart of 5/30 then went to the new case of,Opps, 5/20. Question is, will mixing the 2 weights (5/20=1 quart, 5/20=4 quarts)...
