    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Thanks for the info. Wish I had known that before ordering after market. Dang, I almost ordered one of those too, but no one mentioned it in my topic about this A/C problem. :( I'll check Napa, but they are pretty expensive here. You can't share photos from your computer like that. Use the...

    REGEARING for larger tires/

    That answered all but this part: I wasn't thinking the JBA steel diff, I was thinking only the various parts required to convert my existing diffs. I'll continue to try to find a front diff at a nearby dismantler so that can be converted and I won't have so much down-time. My problem is not...

    REGEARING for larger tires/

    My tires are not quite 32s, I have a full set of good skids and plan to add the gas tank skid at some point. I'd like to get a front bumper and a winch and not counting the mountain trails I like to ride, there's also plenty of hilly highway. I might even be thinking about getting a small travel...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Drove a mile to the grocery store and worried the whole way that the serpentine belt or the A/C pulley would break - such a racket. Yesterday the A/C pump and clutch arrived, along with a new belt and accumulator/dryer. Just waiting on the metal hose so I can make the appointment to have the...

    There is no "4x4" section and no 4x4 forum here on JeepKJ.com. Link to the topic or forum you are referring to please.

    Air Conditioner makes a pretty good heater

    I didn't know the compressor and clutch assembly was sold separately. I've only been looking at compressors that include the clutch assembly. Like this one: Brand New Premium Quality AC Compressor & A/C Clutch For Jeep Liberty 3.7L I chose that one (I haven't ordered anything yet) because it...

    Air Conditioner makes a pretty good heater

    Coming back from Reno yesterday and thinking my air conditioner isn't blowing as cool as it used to. Then I noticed it kept blowing even less cool air and before long, it wasn't even cool air, it was more warm air. It's late afternoon, still pretty warm outside, but I opened driver and passenger...

    Does this place still exist?

    The member, The Grafx Shop, hasn't been online since 04-09-2016 and hasn't posted since 10-22-2015. Their facebook page hasn't had a post by them since 10/23/16. Their website has a notice on the home page that the business is for sale. I imagine that's been there for a while. If you paid by...

    Am I too short for a Liberty without pedal extenders?

    I think your best bet would be to go to a dealer that has a KJ on the lot, find one at a local dismantler or ask around your friends and acquaintances if anyone knows someone who owns one you can sit behind the wheel of to test the fit. Even if someone here says, "i'm 4'8" and it fits fine for...

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    I ordered a scuba tank strap. It's designed to hold a much larger tank than what I use, but I thought it might work. It does work for a single tank, but it's kind of a struggle because of the way the strap and the velcro grips are laid out. It's long enough to hold 2 tanks in place, but the...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I took my new roof rack basket out for a test drive with a couple oxygen tanks strapped in. It's been raining for days, so I didn't think I would get any decent photos, but I did take some of the KJ.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Bummer, bummer, BUMMER! So sorry to hear about that. I hope your bones heal fast and that you find satisfying ways to while away the time during that process. Maybe you have friends who can take you and your KJ out wheelin' on soft, non-jarring terrain once in a while.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Is that legal where you live? I thought sidemarker lights or reflectors were required. The Jeep Liberty uses the sides of the taillights to be in compliance with that law. You might have to add some other type of light or reflector to stay legal, if that's a requirement where you live.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I assembled and put a Rola Roof Basket on my KJ. I posted all about it here: http://www.jeepkj.com/forum/716331-post45.html

    Custom Roof Crossbars for a Low Profile Rack

    The Rola Roof Basket arrived today. My first job was to remove that damn Rola logo from the front and back of the basket. I paid a lot of money and I do not like advertising for companies unless they pay me. With some help from the good Jeepers of JeepKJ.com, I was able to get the logo off...

    Rola Roof Basket Arrived

    Nail polish remover worked well enough for who it's for. ;)

    Rola Roof Basket Arrived

    I know it's been 5 years since that question was asked, but the question is still open. I got my Rola basket in today and I'd like to get that logo off somehow. The rear logo was just a sticker and peeled right off. The fairing is not going to be that easy. I think solvent would do it, but not...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I felt bad that I have neglected my KJ for several days, so I ordered the Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket tonight. Looking forward to that.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Yeah, I really like the windows down. But I wear hats (NOT those 1-size fits all caps) and I worry I'll lose one out the window or sunroof at 60mph and never see it again. That would make me sad. :(
