"TRI-LINK Replacement
Tri-link I didn't have that kind of trouble, but I think I remember something being pretty subborn with a rear lower control arm andusing a breaker bar on the bolt and a floor jack to turn it a few degrees at a time then reset until I could move it with arm strength. Which bolts specifically...- Will_K

Are light bars not in demand?
I'm noticing Facebook marketplace the ones that are listed have been marked down, one is at $80. I just picked one up to sell, along with a set of unpainted flares- Will_K

How much lift
It does have a new moog lower ball joint on the passenger side, and I haven't done that side yet. I could go back for that so I don't feel like I completely got nothing from it. At least it's I got a sense of accomplishment feom getting the parts out. Lol- Will_K

How much lift
I'm starting to wonder if I tricked myself and it was on wheel stands. But usually they lift the tires off the ground. When I got to it 3 wheels were off but the one that was still on did touch the ground. Anyway here's the parts sitting in the back of my other truck, I have no idea of the...- Will_K

How much lift
This vehicle recently appeared in a local salvage yard, any guesstimate how much lift it has? I already grabbed the springs shocks and struts.- Will_K

Double DIN radio swap
Welp, I got the Metra double din radio dash bezel, so I figured I might do something like I did on my F150 and swap in another touchscreen OEM radio. For 2010 F150 it's not too bad since there's a few Mercury and Lincoln options that aren't too hard to find in salvage. For my Jeep Liberty, I'll...- Will_K

Seat swap - passenger seat SRS light comes on now
I resolved this, by the way, by just switching the seat base wire harness back in from the original seat. Some day I might try figuring out how to get the power seat and heat working, and I've got the harness and motorized base frame in case I get to it before I expire. But I probably have...- Will_K

Coolant leak?
Ok so I bought coolant and uv dye and a pressure tester from harbor freight. Pour the dye in and run it to distribute it, but nothing is obvious. The splatter is boiling off on the exhaust. Engine reaches temperature but I can't find anything with the uv light. I do notice the water pump pulley...- Will_K

Coolant leak?
Well, I do suspect it's more likely engine compartment since everything in the engine compartment was wet... the alternator, water pooled on top of all the ignition coils, top of the intake wet... Apparently the tkq pick a part salvage I'm toledo has higher prices than I'm used to in the...- Will_K

Coolant leak?
I think it's a coolant leak of some sort - I am not as young as I used to be so my sense of smell isn't the greatest, but I could smell something and after a while on the 14 mile drive home it occurred to me that maybe what I smelt was coolant. It's also raining, so if I didn't smell it I...- Will_K

First ORV trail outing
To prepare before leaving home I changed out my wheels to the set of mud tires. It was a 40 mile drive and as expected they were pretty noisy. First stop for Saturday was Holly Powersports to get the flag and flag mount. Holly Oaks ORV park requires a 10' flag with an orange flag for safety so...- Will_K

First ORV trail outing
Tomorrow is the first they're open for the season after a month of closure. I can't help feel a little confused by what I read online. I have my orv and orv trail paths and it talks about putting them in the center but that's all spare tore and I usually seem to see the stickers top right... and...- Will_K

First ORV trail outing
It'd be nice if anyone has been to Holly Oaks ORV park and could say "oh yeah, for your first time out, you should try this trail or that trail" or something. But barring that I'm sure I'll just wing it. I'm probably as old and worn out as my vehicle, but what the heck. I'm going out with my 17...- Will_K

driveshaft after universal joints replaced - vibration around 60-70 mph
So I completed a replacement of my universal joints which ended up being a replacement of the driveshaft with the new universal joints going into another used drive shaft from a 2006. After that, I am getting a low frequency vibration between 60-70 MPH. I think it's gotten quieter. Looking to...- Will_K

Skid plates - what else while I'm at it?
Well maybe I should clarify, the part of the question I was probably needing to know more is about if there are any preventative maintenance procedures I should plan for on the underside of my own vehicle while I'm down there if I go to the effort of changing the trans crossmember and installing...- Will_K

Skid plates - what else while I'm at it?
Part of the answer might just be that I like going into junkyards and disassembling things. It's fun. Any excuse to do it. It's $12.99 for a trans crossmember. I have the factory bolts. In short, it's reasonably simple, quick and easy plus it's less opportunity to screw something up. I mean...- Will_K

Skid plates - what else while I'm at it?
Now I've got myself a full set of skid plates. I have a front suspension skid place installed, but I'm wondering if maybe I should go back to the salvage yard and grab the trans crossmember so I have properly installed inserts for the transmission skid plate and the front of the transfer case...- Will_K
