    2005 Liberty Sport

    Brighter LED bulbs first, then you can buy a short LED bar that can be fixed onto the top of the front bumper between the headlights.

    How-To Full Parking Brake Replacement

    TY, Excellent description of the procedure. Now, in 2023, this Senior on a fixed income will have the confidence to do mine on my 2005. I guess eyeball the adjusting after the install? Spinn the wheel so it does not drag?

    Tow hook hardware?

    I bought my tow hooks from the dealer back in 2005. I recall they came with the hardened bolts and nuts that spread out as you turn the bolts into the frame. Not sure the rating of the bolts so ask JEEP at their phone number and if they don't make them at least you will know which bolts to buy...

    Roof rack for KJ

    My rails came as advertised by RRO, but I had to add rubber strips below each foot of the rails to avoid metal to metal contact. One of the rear bolt holes on one rail was a little off center which I called to tell them to check their measurements. Also, I have a little rust where the welds are...

    My 2005 Driver Side Seat Belt is worn out. Would there be any issue swapping it with my Passenger Side Seat Belt? Has anyone done this? If so needed, where would I buy a new belt?

    Important recalls...

    I had installed a hitch many years ago and took it to my dealership when notified of the recall. They said I was good as was and I asked for money that I had spent on mine. Dealership refused but I called my local TV News Station Consumer Reporter and she had Chrysler headquarters send me a check.

    07 6 Speed Rebuild

    I own an 2005 and had a clutch replacement three years ago. I left my KJ overnight and the shop said they had a local machine shop carefully refinish the Flywheel. I asked the machine ship guy and he knew it was curved. He claims he very carefully turned the Flywheel taking minimal surface off...

    Front Lower Control Arms

    I have some grease fitted OMIX brand LBJs I will be installing from 4 Wheel Drive Parts. Hope they do well. I had the current LBJs replaced under the recall years ago but they were the same non grease OE that were originally there. No improvement.

    KJ reliability over the long haul

    I wish I was as lucky. My 2005 bought new, at 80K miles has had a few more parts replaced but my engine still seems sound. Jeep should have used better engineering for the suspension quality and design.

    Blower motor / resistor

    Replace the resistor card with one from a Dodge Sebring 1996 year I recall. It is green ceramic and plugs in like the OE. I did this to my 2005 years ago and have not had problems since. It is either 1993 or 1996 year. Compare how it looks at a parts store with your OE part.

    Roof rack for KJ

    One of the rear stock bolts was a bit out of alignment but yes, you use the stock bolts again. The rails look strong and nice but tiny rust spots on a couple of the feet area. I just started applying FastWax spray wax on them to see if it helps weatherize them since I now park the KJ outside...

    My gas tank recall experience Good KJ owners, I saw in 2005 when I bought my Liberty that the gas tank was not well protected from damage and installed a Draw-Tite hitch myself. When the recall was announced it took about six months to actually get an appointment at the Jeep dealer shop...
