    Let's See Your Revos!

    Tire sizes - always a question. I've picked out the new rims that I want for my '04 Liberty. Problem is, they only come in a 17 inch. I would like to put 245/65 17s on them. The tread width is less than half an inch wider than the 245/70 16s. I don't think I'll have a rubbing issue since no...

    Gotta find a place in Virginia....

    Anybody know anywhere in Virginia to take my jeep for some fun? The little construction site by the movie theatre here is getting tiresome. I'm looking for some good trails. And mud, I can't forget the mud.

    04 3.7 with Standard trans - Drivability TSB

    My '04 Liberty had these exact symptons. Thanks for posting the TSB info. I took my Jeep to the dealer, they performed the fix and it runs and drives great now. Huge difference. =D>

    How did you first find your KJ?

    My Liberty Purchase I was finally in a position to go and buy a new car. I have always cash-purchased cars to last a couple years then get something else. I like change. So this was a big deal for me. I currently drove a '94 GMC Jimmy with the 4.3 Vortec automatic 4X4. I love(d) that car. Went...

    5 lug Yeah, I've been looking for about 2 weeks. They both come in 5X41/2. I'm going with the 16X8 with a 235/70R16 tire.

    American Racing Wheels I've been trying to decide between the Victor and the New Chamber. Both with the black teflon. I'm leaning towards the Chamber. I want to put on either Bridgestone Duel Revos or Dunlap Radial Rover RVXT Victor: Chamber:

    Towing Capacity with a 5 speed.

    Thanks Bennett It's good to know that the Liberty does do well towing. I've read people's opinions, (usually the people with F350s and stuff) saying that the Liberty has no business towing anything. Thanks for quelching their bias comments. I plan to tow whatever I get confidently. MAFDaddy

    Towing Capacity with a 5 speed.

    I heard about a different fan and shroud that goes with the towing package. I know mine does not have either. Like I said, I'll never tow anything that big with mine, but it's a heck of a lot better than my mini-van.

    Towing Capacity with a 5 speed.

    Could be. 5th gear is a nice overdrive. I know 1st is pretty low so getting started pulling a load shouldn't be an issue. Maybe it's the clutch. The weakest link? I thought I read that the tranny itself is beefy enough. Do the automatics and manuals use the same transfer case? I will probably...

    Towing Capacity with a 5 speed.

    Thanks. I had heard and read some of the same comments about towing the max with the liberty. It is a small vehicle. I would still like to know why the manual tranny is rated less than the auto. I would think the opposite would be true. MAFDaddy

    Changed plugs - could this void my warranty?

    My 04 V6 5speed seems to have a hesitation or 'miss' when accelarating during shifting. It only has 18k miles but I threw in some Champion Double platinums. I have a few questions now. 1. Is that plug a good choice? The Auto Zone parts guy said it was the recommended brand. Not sure about that...

    Towing Capacity with a 5 speed.

    I just got a 2004 Liberty with the 3.7 V6 and a 5 speed manual transmission. I've read in most places that the Liberty has a 5000 lbs towing capacity. But, I've also seen it mentioned in a few places that that only applies to the automatic transmission. Can someone enlighten me on this? If the...
