    Trying to find the junction block

    Word of warning, sometimes mods like this can have unintended consequences. I've done hacks to run fogs with high beams and nearly destroyed a junction block because of the electrical heat put out.

    Longevity of Liberty KJ?

    I've driven a couple Semi Tractors that were over the Million Mile marker on the original clutches and transmissions, engines had been rebuilt once over. In fact that's why one engine blew up, because it wasn't assembled right after the rebuild causing the injector tip to break and wash out the...

    Need help with buying a jeep

    It's 24 mpg at 500 miles on a 20.5 gallon tank. Which isn't that hard because I don't have an additional 300lbs of extra drive train. I spent my first few months testing out shift points before finding the two sets for city and highway acceleration. I don't smash it to the floor, I gradually...

    The Multi Million Mile Volvo I was talking about, proof that if you take care of it, then it will last as long as you want. This guy

    Service records showed in the first two years in Germany that the rear ones were replaced, each side. Both rears again when purchased by me were replaced, month after purchase front driver side replaced. Year after that steiger kit on the front passenger.

    Longevity of Liberty KJ?

    The Montana was a joke. I don't think I have actually seen one now for over a year on the roads.

    Longevity of Liberty KJ?

    One thing about my family, were uptight when it comes to caring for our vehicles. My Uncle was an avid Beretta fan, gave my brother one given to him for free. First one was totaled in an accident didn't get too many miles on it. Second one he got, went through four engines in under 100k miles, a...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Backing plate has been re-secured though all the hardware for the parking brake on the right rear is gone. So the parking brake cable has been secured down so it doesn't swing around wildly. I'm really p1$$ed off because of the fact I was told the backing plate had a hole in it and IT DID NOT...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I'm thinking its about time for the huge scrub as well at the car wash. Not to mention I should clean my air filter. Still uptight and nervous though at the minute with the new windshield.

    Longevity of Liberty KJ?

    A vehicle will last as long as you want it to, if you take care of it. Plenty of examples IE the Multi Million Mile Volvo, the legendary Million Mile Saab from Wisconsin, a Million Mile Triton V8 F250. Only exception on said phrase is the Chevrolet Beretta, no matter how hard you care for that...

    And there is no problem with a 2WD Liberty, I get around perfectly fine without any issues where as most people would just click the 4WD and think they're going to drive better. I also do get descent fuel economy with my Libby, 300 in the city on a tank, 500 on the highway at 70 mph.

    You can laugh it up all you want, but truth is as I have said it before if road conditions require 4WD you shouldn't be out driving in it.

    Need help with buying a jeep

    My Jeep would like to challenge you on that matter, I have had no issues in the 3 winters I have had it, in fact even when I had the worn out Goodyear ST's I climbed a hill with five inches of snow. I've never added weight to the back, and the only time I got stuck was when I hung the rear axle...

    My philosophy is as this: If weather conditions end up requiring 4WD then you shouldn't be out driving.

    ABS light

    Hook up to a code scanner, if you have the red brake light that could indicate something serious with the system and more than just a sensor issue.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Put in a new set of LED fogs, one turned dark orange immedately the other stayed golden amber. Emailed the seller telling him what happened and that this happened on my 9145 LEDs but both turned dark orange then fried out. Reference here is I cosmetically moded a set of 9005's to fit into the...
