    Rock Krawler Suspensions

    A little over a year ago I traded my KJ for a 2 door JK. Since then I've joined some JK specific forums. In the JK world Rock Krawler Suspensions is an awesome company with awesome products, however most KJ owners think they leave something to be desired. What gives? BTW, I like my JK but I...

    KJ completely dead out of the blue?

    This afternoon my girlfriend stopped to get gas. She shut the vehicle off and then when she went to restart it she got nothing. The vehicle was completely dead. The entire electrical system just died. By the time I showed up(15minutes later) the lights on the dash would start flickering when you...

    Cold Weather = Noisy Timing Chain

    Has anybody else noticed that when the weather turns cold, the timing chains/adjusters get noisier? During the summer months when I start my Jeep, the timing chains make no noise at all. During the winter, when the temperatures dip down, they start to get a little noisy at start-up. Once the...

    JK Owners

    To all those JK owners out there. I'm seriously thinking about trading my 2003 KJ in for a 2010 JK. I'm trying to get an idea of what I should pay. If you have a JK, can you please give me an idea of what you bought it for? Could you post what trim level you have, what the sticker price was...

    Squeak that won't go away

    Hi everyone, I've got this squeak/chirping sound somewhere in my Jeep that I just can't seem to locate. Here are the symptoms... It's only audible with the windows up, all the accessories off, and under 35mph. Above 35mph, it goes away. It doesn't appear to be rythmic, or in relation to...

    Viper 5101 Remote Start Keyless Entry, Omega ChDL4-P

    I recently installed a Viper 5101 Remote Start Keyless Entry unit with an Omega CHDL4-P vehicle interface in my 2003 Jeep Liberty. The installation instructions were okay if you're familiar with remote car starters, but there were parts of it that were very vague. The installation manual is...

    JK Transmission

    What's the better tranmission offered in the JK? 6-speed manual, or 4 speed auto? Which is better for offroad use also?

    Welding the pinch weld seem.

    I know the accepted practice for dealing with the pinch weld is to beat it over and pound it flat. Since I'm not a fan of pinch welds, due to corrosion issues, has anyone welded their pinch weld seam? I realize there probably aren't any advantages of this other than making the job look...

    Sunday ride

    A couple Sundays ago my girlfriend and I were out for a ride. She had been telling me about this place near where she used to live. We went up to check it out and ended up taking a 3 mile trip back in the woods. It wasn't anything too serious, but some spots made her nervous. I still...

    tiresavings.com

    I just though I'd throw this out there. This is the cheapest place I've found online for tires with great customer service. This is my second purchase with them. The first was a set(4) of General Grabber AT2's for my '03 Liberty. They were about $400 shipped. I just ordered a set(4) of...

    Fram Filters, junk???

    Over the years I've heard a lot of people say they hate Fram oil filters. I've heard horror stories about them, but I've never had one single problem with them. I often wonder if this is a case of people being sheep. Somone heard someone say they didn't like them, so naturally, they don't...

    Richmond Gear LUBE GL-6 Gear Oil 75W140

    Richmond Gear LUBE GL-6 Gear Oil 75W140 Has anybody ever used this stuff? Is it any good? When I changed the differential fluids in my '03, I used Mobil 1 @ $17/quart. Since the '06 won't be seening any off-roading or towing, I'm not going to spend that much money. Since the D30A take...

    Used Coolant Disposal

    What do you guys do with used coolant? I've been fighting tooth and nail trying to find someone who will take it.

    Rattle at start up

    Our 06 has a rattle at start up. It sounds just like a couple transmission lines rattling, or a heat shield that's loose. I've looked under it and found nothing. I believe it's something in the valve train or time chain componets because it goes away about 30 seconds after start up. It's as...

    Intermediate Steering Shaft Replace

    How hard is it to pull the intermediate steering shaft? From the FSM it doesn't look too bad. I need to replace this boot. It's a bit chewed up. I'm not really sure why. The other question is, can I buy just the boot or do I have to get the whole intermediate shaft? Judging from...

    Feathered Tread

    While going over my Jeep before winter, I noticed the tread on the front tires has some pretty good tooth to them. They're feathered to the inside. Now, I understand some feathering is normal, but how much is too much? When I had my alignment done after I installed my lift, the numbers...

    U-Joint size with 45RFE?

    Does anybody know what size U-joint my '03 Liberty with the 45RFE transmission uses? I'd rather go pick up the parts I need before I take the driveshaft out, rather than take one of the old u-joints with me to match up. Advance Auto lists two different sizes for my vehicle. I believe...

    Ford Motorcraft Premium Gold Coolant

    This weekend I plan on flushing the cooling system on my '03. I want to get it ready for winter. When we went out of town this evening, made several stops looking for the Zerex G-05. I couldn't find it anywhere. The only place left is my local NAPA, which I plan on checking tomorrow morning...

    45rfe accumulator plate cover

    I've read a few articals stating the weak point of the 45rfe is the accumulator cover. What are the symptoms of a bent or broken accumulator? A transmission that slips due to no pressure on the clutches. I don't have any problems with mine. I'm just wondering.
