    Front shock & spring replacement - DIY?

    My 04 is in bad need of front shock replacement. With the amount of miles on it I'm thinking I'll replace the springs as well. I was looking at the complete Monroe assembly here and am wondering how involved it is to change the complete units like this, doable by a driveway mechanic? Do any...

    clunking/rubbing noise from rear pass side

    My wife's KJ has on again off again rubbing sound, which sounds like its coming from the rear passenger side wheel. At first I thought it was maybe a sticking pad but braking doesn't affect it. I don't think its a u-joint, as the vibration usually increases or decreases on acceleration or...

    tranny binding on 04 Liberty

    My wife's been complaining about the (auto) transmission shifting real rough on occasion with her Liberty, I've noticed a hard shift once in awhile when driving it cold, but once a few km's are on it it's fine. This morning though, she was reversing out of the driveway when she said it just...

    Front rotors - hard to replace?

    Noticed yesterday there was a grinding sound from the front when braking, peeked in at the pads and outside pads show lots of wear left, could not see inside easily but notice that the inside of the rotors have wore very unevenly while the outside of rotors are smooth. Will pop the wheels...

    Replacement lights for overhead light bar (& other questions)

    Been ages since I've been on this board but a quick search on this didn't bring much so: A couple of the (4) lights on the overhead light bar on my KJ are cracked/broken. If I'm going to be replacing them I was wondering if others on the board here have found better lights than the factory...

    #4 speed was gone in fan, now all are.. still resistor block?

    :3681700093_1f8b56e8 I posted this at the end of the howto thread as well, but I don't think it gets read as much.. Anyway, when I bought the Liberty a couple of years ago, I noticed that the #1 speed either didn't work or was so low it wasn't audible over road noise etc. At the time someone...

    engine light just came on

    My wife's 05 KJ just had the engine light come on. I've searched this a bit, and haven't tried some of solutions (battery disconnect, cycle key etc) yet, but will tomorrow. I changed the oil not long ago, but am running it past the recommended interval because I run synthetic. Is there some...

    rear brake pads, do I have the anti-rattle clip?

    Just calling around to find a good price on rear pads, and I find out that monroe pads come with or without the anti rattle clip, but the Nascar pads don't. I have no idea if my 04/V6 KJ has them or not, being an optioned out model I will assume it does. I am also assuming that the pads...

    Hi Beam relay question on 04 KJ

    Curious about this, I pulled my fuse panel off yesterday to replace the power point (lighter) fuse, and I noticed the hi beam relay plug has nothing in it. Since this is a Canadian unit I have the daytime running lights standard, should there or should there not be a relay in this plug?

    Has anyone replaced the overhead light switch with a 3-way so they work with hi beams

    I was just thinking about this while reading another thread about auxiliary driving lights. Years ago a buddy of mine put some Lucas "flamethrowers" on his car, and wired them in with a 3-way rocker switch in such a way that in one of the "on" positions they would only come on with the high...

    Lightbar & headlights question

    Since my (wifes) Liberty came sans owners manual, I was wondering: How does one aim the lights? Are they adjustable? Is there aftermarket (brighter) replacements? I finally got a chance to use them on an overcast night on the weekend and I expected a lot more night vision than they...

    remote starter question

    Up here in the northern climes a remote starter is a real "nice to have" item, on those -40 mornings it's nice to press a button a few minutes before you leave and go out to a nice toasty vehicle. I have heard though, that some vehicles with security systems are not compatible with remote...

    Just bought the wife an 04 Liberty - questions

    New to the group - hello all! We needed a newer vehicle for my wife as her new job involves a fair amount of travel, much of it in winter months, which can bring adverse conditions here in northern Alberta. I wanted something that would be able to handle unplowed roads, sudden snowstorms and...
