I don't have a great side shot of my truck sitting on a level surface - this is about the best one I have right now. The front sits at 20.25 and the rear at 20.5. I might throw a conduit nut in the front to bring it up a bit more. I do like the ride, it's a bit softer than the OME (which I had...
Nice - there is some great mountain biking in your neck of the woods - rode over there for a few days last year. I ended up going with just some Monroe OE Spectrum shocks and the H&R lift springs from Essex in Vancouver, which was a good deal at $450 to my door. Ended up with 1.5 inches of...
I am also of the mindset that wood belongs in English cars or vintage American cars, but don't let our opinions stop you from doing what you like. It's your car, do what you like :)
I put a Dynomax Super Turbo kit on my truck - gives it a nice little burble under 1500 rpm but once you are up to speed it is pretty quiet - no droning on the highway at all.
When you say your O2 values are bouncing all over which data pids are you monitoring? can you take a picture of the data on the scan tool and post it? A video of the noise would help - does it seem like the noise is timed with crank speed or cam speed?
x2 what KJ said - when you first started it up the engine would have been pumping coolant through it first as the oil sits on top of the coolant in the pan which in turn probably caused some bearing damage. How long did you run it with the bad oil in it?
Have had my springs in for about 2 weeks now and must say it rides much better than the newer oem (Monroe) stuff I had before. The ride is a bit more firm and there is a bit less nose dive when braking as well. Feels more controlled on the gravel roads I drive almost every day. I took some...
I had acquired a set of used tires a few months back for the Jeep. Turns out they weren't perfectly round (had been sitting in a garage for many years) so they went in the bin and I put a set of new tires on the Jeep today. Just some Westlake A/T's, nothing too fancy as I just spend $1600 on a...
I'm guessing there won't be much "Liberty" left when she is done, but I could be wrong. Will be interesting to see what the other teams do with their cars.
Sold our Tacoma 2 days ago so I took the light bar off of it and put it on the Liberty today, and mounted up a 245/75/16 spare tire to match what is on the truck.
I don't know where you live, but maybe one of the bigger auto parts stores in the US would rent you an oil pressure gauge - they are also pretty inexpensive to buy - $25 on amazon. That's where I would start...
Before doing anything I would put an oil pressure gauge on it to see if it is just a faulty sensor or if it actually has low oil pressure. If it does have low oil pressure, and combined with the possible head gasket leak I would be looking for a new motor and not wasting time/money on this one.
I have a large pair of Knipex pliers that will pretty much undo anything you can fit them around - I just turn the steering all the way over to one side, pull the boot back, and undo the inner tie rod from the rack. On my truck the only bolts that have given me any grief were the tie rod ends -...
