    Upper control arm alternatives

    Diverting KK's upper arm to KJ. There was a post about someone doing this in the past, I haven't seen anyone post that it's completed. I thought it was a pretty interesting modification, I wonder what happened.

    Grease fittings for lower ball joint

    I also bought it from a Japanese importer. It was the one in the photo on the right. Even though only 4WD is sold in Japan. Moreover, the internal ball is not returning properly and is spewing out grease. With the lower arm lifted and the load removed, I flipped up the boot and pushed in the...

    Thank you for your quick reply. I missed the most obvious thing. Since it is multiple choice, it seems that the two are not the same.

    Upper control arm alternatives

    If the arm doesn't sell ball joints like a faucet sells water, it's user-friendly. It is written on the website that Rocky Road is suitable for 2002-2012. https://rocky-road.com/shop/jeep-liberty-control-arms/ KK's arms are asymmetrical. Is Rocky Road also asymmetrical? I am considering the...

    Phone Mount Recommendation?

    I made it using. A smartphone clamp for a camera tripod that costs about $2, A universal head for a camera tripod that costs about $2. Outrigger-like 3D printed mount, rubber blind nut, It's better to pay a little more for a universal head. It rotates occasionally.

    What many people are probably concerned about is whether or not the ball joint will break when the leg is fully extended. The JBA arm has a significant geometry in place for that. However, I often see posts saying that when the legs are fully extended, the arms hit the springs. This annoys...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Last week I changed the end eye bushing on the rear shock. 95% of car noise has been reduced. Tapered bush with maximum diameter of 29.6mm, inner diameter of 16mm, and width of 36mm. I used it as a set with a collar with an outer diameter of 16 mm and a width of 40 mm, and I attached it...

    I am still using the MOOG that I changed 4 years ago. We don't want to sacrifice anyone. But, I'm thinking of buying one if I need to replace the UCA next time.

    2004 liberty Rebuilding the front end on my moms jeep and found a lot of fluid in tie rod boots

    I would like to believe that this is possible if it is on the passenger side.

    2004 liberty Rebuilding the front end on my moms jeep and found a lot of fluid in tie rod boots

    thank you. Looking at the photo of the seal kit, it looks like one of the end seals is simply fixed with a C ring. I'll check to see if it's on the passenger side. I was only looking for third party rack assemblies and not genuine stock. I also try enabling right-hand drive countries in google...

    2004 liberty Rebuilding the front end on my moms jeep and found a lot of fluid in tie rod boots

    Mine too. Is there space outside the end seal for additional end seals? Or, is it possible to replace only the end seal? without removing the steering rack assembly from the car. I feel like it could be done if I could remove the pinion. There was so much disassembly other than the rack that...

    Newbie question about lift kits

    Even with a lift, there is a high chance of rubbing. Mine is an RC 3 inch lift with a wheel offset of -16mm and a height of 21.5 inches, but it rubs around the fog lights. It is a 31 inch tire. This is an early bumper type. The outer diameters of 265/60r18 and 31 inch tires are almost the...

    Front strut length

    Although it is sandwiched like this, The shock side is press-fitted. It's made of aluminum. I don't think repressing it will work.

    Procomp for KK ?

    I found this on a Japanese auction site. It looks like Procomp's member down kit for KK. Does it look like the front could be used for KJ? Since it is not included in the catalog, there is no installation information. Since it is 4 inches, it seems that there will be some inconvenience in the rear.

    Front strut length

    Thank you. It's very useful here. Not having a ladder frame also makes things difficult. Currently, I am satisfied with the spacer lift that came with the vehicle when I purchased it, but I think the shock absorber has reached the end of its lifespan, so I am considering rebuilding it. My...

    Front strut length

    By increasing the shock length and using a spring with the same spring rate as the stock but with a free length 1 to 1.5 inches longer than the stock, you can increase the travel in the extension direction and get 2 to 3 inches of lift and stock ride quality. However, the travel in the...

    Front strut length

    This is a very interesting post. In other words, the OME spring increases preload to provide lift. In order to achieve high preload with a free length close to stock, It feels like they have increased the spring rate. Increasing the spring rate reduces the amount of compression when subjected to...
