    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I think that also describes the spare on '96 XJ

    06 kj rear brake lights issue

    Yes they are twin filament bulbs, so it could well be tat only the higher wattage filament has failed. From memory, the other rear bulbs are too, although only one is used, so swap one gf those for the brake/tail & see what happens. The sockets on KJ's are infamous for getting hot, distorting...

    Help! My 03 Jeep Liberty’s battery died and Sepentine belt came off.

    I wouldn't expect any main dealer to have any parts for anything over 5 years old, or any interest in or knowledge of, them - unless they have a rip-off "classic" parts program. There are, however, a couple of reliable independent parts places in the UK - & several places, particularly, in...

    Help! My 03 Jeep Liberty’s battery died and Sepentine belt came off.

    Like he said, all good sound advice. Good luck. Oh, & serpentine belts don't like stuck idler pulleys (the little ones that appear to be just bolted to the front of the engine) so pay particular attention to them.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    As of last weekend, when the running XJ decided it wouldn't go backwards anymore (made a Devon lane more interesting than usual when rounding a bend, further down the hill, there's a tree across the road) none of mine work (KJ's brake job's been on hold for a few months now) - so I'm reduced to...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Result! - but don't fancy your chances removing the old filter.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'd hate to be stuck behind you in traffic on a dark, wet night.

    42RLE and 45RFE Transmission Filter and Gasket Info

    The short answer is "you can't"! But, do you just mean the dipstick's missing - or there's no provision for one?

    All you need to do is replicate the SRL circuitry.

    Poxy parking brake

    Never mind the axles, we're only concerned with the brakes & from memory they're not much different, either between KJ & WJ - or anything else with top hat calipers. WJ's don't have the appalling reputation, in that department, that KJ's do - although, if anything, the actual mechanism that...

    bolt size interior windshield grab handles

    As Jeeps have been metric for about 30 years that's hardly surprising - but 5.5mm is almost as odd a size as 7/32.

    Engine needed ....

    Not so any KJ's around now, but most are going for about what I paid for mine, not so many for much less nor, for that matter, at least twice the price.

    Is a Willys decal wrong

    It's no more a Willys than the Mahindras that had the name (word?) pressed into body panels, whatever it is that Jeep (by any other name) have decided to attach the name to (because history/heritage/pedigree/nostalgia sells!) or, for that matter, my XJ that carries Willys Service Dept signs on...

    Poxy parking brake

    Self-adjusting parking brakes don't work - & never have (except, possibly, on Renaults). They have improved in the last 60 years but not enough to justify them. I understood that the self adjustment mechanism on KJ's is activated by emergency stops in reverse - i.e. something you never do in...

    2005 Liberty Jeep Limited

    I assumed the price was a misprint but it's obviously priced not to sell - ever (even the $6500 mentioned is 1000% o-t-t A clear case of confusing rare with desirable.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Curiously it's one of the few KJ jobs I've done (3 times: once to replace the one with the bad CJ, then both when I had to replace the diff/axle) which I don't recall being any sort of issue at all, although I thought it pretty stupid that the CVJ won't pass thru' the knuckle.

    Rear Wiper Blade Assistance.

    Like I said, just because they're listed as fitting, doesn't mean they will. I've recently been through all this with my Suzuki Grand Vitara, because no wiper supplier acknowledges that in 2006 they stuck GV badges on a completely different vehicle & the correct blade is listed only for the...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    If I can manage to change an all steel XJ liftgate (with only the help of a pair of steps, a carpet off-cut & a piece of corrugated cardboard) I reckon I could manage but watch Project DanH replace the glass on a WJ for a few hints & tips.
