    charging system

    Our 06 Liberty 3.7 is not charging the battery. Connections are tight and clean, and the belt is in good condition and tight. I know that it's almost certainly the alternator, but that it could possibly be the PCM (which contains the VR). Can someone tell me the test procedure to pinpoint...

    transfer case swap

    2006 Jeep Liberty 3.7/auto. I'm wondering about the possibility of swapping an NP242 in place of the original NP231. I was looking at some online parts diagrams and see that the shifters are different, but wasn't able to determine much else. I also did not come up with anything on a general...

    cargo carrier

    I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has used a rooftop cargo bag or hard carrier on their KJ. How did it work, and what type/size did you use? Thanks!

    slightly larger tire

    I'm going to put some new AT3s on the Libby. ($70 Cooper rebate until 4/15!) I just replaced the shocks, and when I did that, put an extra upper spring isolator in the rear and a 1/4" spacer in front...so, a whopping 1/2" lift. My question is: can I go with 235/75R16 rather than the stock...

    On our '06 Libby, the rear joint in the front driveshaft is shot. Has anyone rebuilt this using the Dorman kit? Any tips/advice appreciated!

    front axle/driveshaft noise

    '06 Libby 3.7/auto. When in 4x4, there is a noise that is somewhere between whirring and growling. It is most noticable when accelerating moderately; light acceleration produces a lesser noise, and I can barely hear it when coasting. Do you think this is most likely a joint in the driveshaft...

    keyless entry

    We're having problems with the keyless entry on our '06 Sport. Starting last night, it only works intermittently (this affects all functions: lock, unlock, and rear glass). At first I thought it was my remote battery, so I changed it, but the problem remains. The same thing happens with my...

    online OEM parts

    Where is a good place to order OEM parts online? I believe in buying local when possible, but I've had enough of the d**k behind the parts counter at my local dealer. It's too bad, because the sales and service people there are great.

    WIX filters

    In a recent thread, some folks mentioned the price of WIX/NAPA Gold filters. Yes, they usually are priced higher. Thought I would pass this info on if anyone is interested. If you join the message board Moparts, you can order from Filter 1 at a pretty healthy discount...

    5W20 oil....interesting

    Just thought this was interesting. The FSM for my 57 Plymouth lists either SAE5 or 5W20 as the viscosities to use for cold weather operation. Most folks think of 5W20 as a newcomer, but it was recommended by a vehicle mfr over 50 years ago! Kinda takes the idea about 5W20 being introduced for...

    trans cooler lines

    I ordered new trans cooler lines for my '06. Has anyone replaced these before? The service manager at the dealer warned me that they are "a real b1tch" to replace, and that a special tool is needed for the connections. Any advice is appreciated.

    trans cooler lines

    Has anyone purchased trans cooler lines for an 05-06 Libby? I found what appears to be a pair of lines for $10.06. Knowing the price of OEM parts, I'm skeptical that this is actually the right part. Comments...

    front axle seals

    Changed oil today on our 06 Sport, and found that BOTH front axle seals are leaking! Since I don't have a garage right now, I'll probably end up taking it in for this. Does anyone know about how many hours this job will take? Thanks in advance.

    dash speakers

    Does anyone know of an aftermarket speaker that fits in the dash of an 06 KJ? According to Crutchfield, it is an oddball size tweeter. Does anyone have any more info? Thanks.
